Police are on the hunt for thieves who pulled off a daring heist, making off with three large bronze statues from a rural garden near Sellindge, Kent. The stolen artworks, including depictions of a stag, two deer, and a wishing well, are valued at an estimated £12,000.
The baffling theft occurred in the hamlet of Stone Hill and is believed to have taken place between 7:30pmon April 4th and 6:30 AM the following morning. Joanne Wootten, the owner of the rural farm, expressed astonishment at the audacity of the burglars, who managed to abscond with the statues without causing damage to the property’s electric gate or protective wall.
