Heartbroken after bears were stolen

IRREPLACABLE bears and tools have been stolen from a Noble Park shed.
The victims are desperately appealing for their safe return, Greater Dandenong Detective Sergeant Luke Kirton said.
The burglary occurred at a Leonard Avenue unit block between Thursday 28 and Friday 29 April.
Det Sgt Kirton said thieves broke into a storage shed and stole collectible bears, including one that was 52 years old – and tools from the 1950s and ’60s “that are basically irreplaceable”.
“They’re quite individual and they’re very sentimental to the owner,” he said.
“The owner’s desperate to get them back.”
Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 with any information.
