BRAZEN thieves climbed on to wheelie bins then stole the sign from an East Yorkshire pub in broad daylight.

They unscrewed a 12-foot sign from the archway to the Green Dragon pub in Beverley then made off with it in a white van.

The sign has “Green Dragon” painted on it in gold lettering on a black background. The theft happened at about 8.15am last Saturday, July 9.

The two men are described as white, middle aged and of a stocky build.

Humberside Police ask anyone who may have information about the theft, or who knows the whereabouts of the stolen sign, to phone 0845 6060222, quoting crime reference 1847653.
