POLICE say a trend that has emerged this year in the Rosebud area of thieves stealing pots, ornaments, urns and statues from verandas, porches and front gardens of houses, especially holiday houses.
Victims of these thefts are encouraged to report it on the police assistance line 131 444. Anyone with information on these thefts is urged to call Acting Sergeant Loughlin at the Rosebud police station, or call Crimestoppers 1800 333 000 or visit bddy.me/3kut29f
Police urge anyone with these items, especially at a holiday house, to store them securely before you go back home. “Together, we can weed out these pot thieves,” they say.
