A CAMPERVAN was stolen from a lane while its owners walked their dogs. 

The Volkswagen was taken from Brandy Hole Lane, Chichester, sometime between 4.30pm and 5.15pm on Thursday (February 25), police said. 

The van has multiple custom upgrades like lowered suspension and a holographic paint job which appears purple in bright light and blue in dim.

Its owners locked it while they went walking and came back to find it had gone, police said. 

PC Darren Hall appealed for witnesses or anyone who has seen the van to come forward. 

He said: "We would like to hear from anyone who was in the area on Thursday afternoon and saw anyone acting suspiciously."
