Burglars Swipe Precious Olympic Medals in Monks Risborough Break-In

Thames Valley Police have released images of stolen goods after a daring burglary in Monks Risborough. Between 5pm on Sunday 3 March and 2.45pm on Tuesday 5 March, thieves forced open a side window of a home on Burton Lane and made off with a haul of valuable items.

Priceless Olympic and Commonwealth Medals Stolen

Among the stolen loot are rare Olympic and Commonwealth medals, some of which are shown in replica images released by police. These medals hold huge sentimental value for the victim.

Police Plea: Help Find the Irreplaceable Medals

Detective Constable Francesca Keen from High Wycombe police said: “This offence has caused the victim to lose items of high sentimental value to them. Given the rarity of these medals, I hope these images will jog someone’s memory and help return them to their rightful owner.”
