Bizarre objects Stolen from the Police.

After the theft of PC Bobb we thought we would have a look at some bizarre objects that have been stolen from under the very noses of our beloved constabulary. We have the case of the Northumbria force who logged the loss of £40 worth of clay pigeons and a 50pence toilet roll. Other unusual items pilfered were, a prayer mat, taken from an Essex Police station, a £45 wheelie bin, from Cumbria and an A to Z of Rochdale, from Greater Manchester. Surely the A to Z just got lost! Cornwall Police reported stolen, three teddy bears, make-up and a 13ft boat and a trailer. Also listed is the theft of ice cream, syrup and rolls belonging to the force. North Yorkshire Police had a £10 doorbell stolen. It was not clear whether the bell was unscrewed by the thief from the front door of the police station itself. Lancashire Police recorded a stolen hairbrush and a strimmer and seized alcohol were stolen, along with two cardboard cut outs of officers. In Gwent a set of blinds, tea cloths, a gas cooker and £18 worth of beer went walkabout. We didn’t realise Puddles was over here on holiday! But the creme de la creme has to be the two officers were stunned to find that an intruder had broken into their police station and helped himself to some Weetabix. Less Goldilocks more  big bear! Was he a cereal offender? Thus the loss of PC Bobb seems to be just the tip of a very large iceberg.
