Commercial drivers may want to check they have adequate van insurance following the news that thieves broke into a vehicle and stole a sat nav device in King's Lynn.

Police are appealing for information after thieves smashed the window of a Citroen Relay van in Sutton Bridge last week, Lynn News reports.

It is thought the theft occurred between 19:00 BST on September 8th and 11:30 BST the following day.
