Claim your lost property - 07-10-2008

POLICE APPEAL FOR PEOPLE TO CLAIM STOLEN PROPERTY

Police  in Leigh have recovered what is believed to be stolen property, and

are hoping the rightful owners will come forward to claim it.



On  Monday  4 August 2008 police seized the following items on the car park

of the Lancastrian Squash Club in Leigh - a ‘Navman F 20' sat-nav device, a

red  sat-nav  storage case, compact discs in a denim case and various items

of jewellery in a small velvet bag.



A ‘Muddy Fox' and a ‘Claude Butler' mountain bike were also seized.



PC  Stephen  Marsden  of  the  Leigh  Neighbourhood Policing Team said: "We

return  stolen property whenever we can, but in this case we have exhausted

our  enquiries  and still can't find the rightful owners.  Therefore we are

asking  people to come forward to claim these items, as we believe they are

still  in  good  working  order  and  if  not  claimed  they may have to be

destroyed."



Police  say  the  property  will only be released to people who can produce

either a matching serial number or valid receipts.



If  anyone  believes  they  may  be the owner of one of these items, please

contact  the  Leigh  Neighbourhood Policing Team on                0161 856 7225         and quote

the  serial number to check for a match.  Alternatively, bring any receipts

showing  proof of purchase to Leigh Police Station on Chapel Street, Leigh.
