An enormous haul of sex toys worth around £1m has been stolen from the back of a lorry.

Police are appealing for information following the daring raid at a layby on the A43 in Northamptonshire.

The sex toys were being delivered to an adult shop in Kettering when they were stolen overnight.

Thieves raided the van in the early hours of the morning on September 18, on the A43 between the A14 and the village of Broughton.

In a statement, Northants Police said: "The incident happened on Wednesday, September 18, between 1am and 6.30am, in the layby between the A14 and Broughton village, and involved a lorry travelling from Felixstowe to Kettering in order to deliver its load to Rocks Off Ltd, a business based in Cunliffe Drive, Kettering.

"Witnesses or anyone with information should contact Northamptonshire Police on 101.
