ANGEL STOLEN FROM GRAVE 🪦👼🏻
Whoever stole a memorial angel from a gravesite at Campbells Creek Cemetery has left a grieving family heartbroken in what many would call one of the lowest acts imaginable.
Coppers are appealing for information after the 50-centimetre praying angel was stolen sometime between 10 May and 24 June.
The shiny brown statue had been cemented into the ground, meaning the mongrel responsible didn't just grab it on the way past – they took the time to rip it from the gravesite.
This wasn't some garden ornament sitting out the front of a house. It was a treasured memorial placed where a family goes to remember someone they love.
The statue's real value isn't measured in dollars. It's measured in memories, grief, and the comfort it gave to those left behind.
Stealing from a cemetery is gutless. Stealing from a grieving family is even worse. It's hard to imagine what goes through someone's mind to think this is acceptable.
The boys in blue are urging anyone who has seen the angel, knows where it may be, or has been offered it for sale, to come forward.
Even the smallest piece of information could help return the memorial to the family and hold whoever is responsible to account.
If you know who did this, now's the time to do the right thing. A family deserves to have their angel back where it belongs.
