Thousands of copies of the new Harry Potter book worth around £130,000 have been stolen.
A trailer containing 7,680 copies of the much-anticipated Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix was taken from a trading estate in Merseyside, England, on Sunday night.
The trailer was discovered on Monday in Salford, Greater Manchester, without its load.
A spokesman for Merseyside Police said: "The trailer contained about £130,000 worth of the new Harry Potter book. We are not sure about the intended destination at this stage."
