Police hunt woman who stole large pink piggy bank from hotel

Police in the Sunbury suburb of Melbourne, Australia, are appealing for public assistance to identify a woman who stole a large pink piggy bank from a hotel last week.



The incident happened at the Sunbury Hotel when the woman approached the cashier’s office on Wednesday 23 September just before 12.30pm.

No one was in the office and the woman was seen on CCTV moving the large pink piggy bank across the counter, closer to the window. The woman then threw a black jacket over the piggy bank, lifted it from the counter and walked away.



The large pink piggy bank collects donations for terminally ill children and their families. The woman is perceived to be Caucasian, aged in her 30s, with brown hair and a medium build. Investigators have released images of the woman they believe may be able to assist them with their enquiry.
