Brazen theft of large metal urn & cycad palm West End Rd
Evening of Monday 11th Oct 10.42pm two men using a 2000-2002 Ford Focus 5dr hatchback stole one of two identical 1m tall cast iron garden urns complete with a mature cycad(sago) palm in it from right outside my front door. Total about 50kg.
All captured on CCTV but they were so fast (2min) that they managed to get away before being confronted. They left a luggage trolley & sunglasses behind which Police are fingerprinting. If the urn, palm or car are sighted or you can identify the thieves plse PM me or notify Police ref no OR-238748N.
