Explained in plain English

Will police find the grapes?

Norfolk Police were notified of the theft, but solving rural crimes can be challenging due to their isolated locations and lack of witnesses. Unlike urban areas, vineyards often lack extensive CCTV coverage. This makes it harder for police to gather evidence and identify suspects, meaning many such thefts go unsolved.
