TWO men will appear in court after the attempted theft of a fence panel.
It comes after police were called to Lyons Square in Silver End amid reports two men were acting suspiciously in a garden.
Darren Horsley, 45, of Alan Road, Witham, and Nigel Hawkins, 49, of Albemarle Link, Springfield, have been charged with being found in or upon an enclosed premise with the intent to steal fence panels.
This comes under the Vagrancy Act 1824.
They are both due to appear at Colchester Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, June 9.
Police say officers arrested two men in Lyons Square at around 10.30pm on Sunday, May 10.
