Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Police are appealing for witnesses after a truck driver was hijacked and his load of chicken breasts stolen.

The incident happened last Wednesday (30 April) at a layby in Lilbourne on the A14 in Northamptonshire. The driver was parking his vehicle when he was approached by two men and forced to get into a white Transit van before being driven to Skelmersdale over 100 miles away.

1-11s truck—a black Volvo SH12 tractor, Dutch registration number BL LD 94, with a white trailer—and its load are still missing.

A Northamptonshire police spokesman says: "We are appealing for any witnesses who may have seen this truck, possibly with a white Transit van, or from anyone who knows where it is now. We would also like to hear from anyone who may have been offered chicken breasts for sale in unusual circumstances."
