A serving soldier is asking for help to track down his Afghanistan medal after it was stolen from his car in Deepdale.
AdvertisementCade Alexander, who serves with the Rifles Regiment, is currently on home leave after four months working on the ambulances.

Cade said: “There were other things, including some expensive colour blind glasses, but I really want the medal back. It has a lot of sentimental value.”
