Over the hill in Gordon Rd, Mosgiel, a burglar helped themselves to two Oamaru stone sculptures. In town, a Masport lawnmower and petrol container went missing from a property in Edith Pl, Shiel Hill, between Saturday and Wednesday last week.

And lastly a home in Glen Rd, Table Mound, just west of Milburn lost its coffee machine and capsules, cups, stereo, lawnmower and other items, Snr Sgt Thomson said.
