Police create gallery of suspected stolen property
- Published
Officers who have seized a number of suspected stolen items have created an online gallery, external in a bid to identify their rightful owners.
Police believe the objects may have been stolen from properties and outbuildings across Somerset and the Blackdown Hills into Devon.
Three men have already appeared in court charged with multiple burglaries and have been remanded pending trial, police said.
Anybody who claims the stolen goods will need to be able to prove ownership.
The stolen objects include a figurine of a spotted dog, a vintage projector, condiment shakers and a pair of antlers.
Over the coming weeks, hundreds of other items will be added to the gallery, including jewellery and electrical goods.
Det Sgt Paul Cobb said: "We have already identified some items as having been stolen in burglaries, so I'd urge anyone who has suffered a burglary to look through the gallery.
"It's important for our ongoing investigation to identify the rightful owners of as many items as possible.
