THE owner of a jet ski stolen from outside a pub has put up a £500 reward for its return.

The Black Polaris SLX 1200 was seen being towed away on a trailer from the Bathpool Inn, Bathpool, in the early hours of Wednesday, August 8.

It is believed a green Peugeot 306 towed it through Ruishton before possibly heading towards Chard.

The jet ski is black with a white bottom and has a twin seat.

A police spokeswoman said: "The owner is offering a £500 reward for anyone who provides information leading to the recovery of the item.

"We are keen to speak to anyone who saw the jet ski being taken, or who saw it being towed through Ruishton, or who knows of its whereabouts now."

Anyone with any information should contact PC Mark Patterson at Taunton Police Station on 0845-4567000.
