Police appeal after painted mannequin stolen from garage roof

Police in Cambridge have appealed for information after thieves stole a painted mannequin which was due to be auctioned off for charity.



The mannequin, part of a community art project called Mitcham’s Models, had been on show on top of a garage roof in when it was stolen between 9pm on Monday and 7.30am on Tuesday.

It was set to be auctioned off for Tom’s Trust in the next few days, a charity which cares for children with brain tumours.



Anyone with any information should contact the police or call Crimestoppers anonymously. Two weeks previously, another mannequin from the same series was cruelly dismembered by vandals.
