Appeal to recover stolen artefacts (UK)

http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk/nwh_gfx_en/ART28593.html
"Museum staff are appealing to the public after a number of ancient Egyptian artefacts were stolen from Abington Museum in Northampton. The thieves broke in through a window on the night of May 29, 2005, and took artefacts from a late 19th/early 20th century collection. The items formed an important part of the museum’s Victorian style room, which remains open despite the thief (or thieves) smashing a glass cabinet of curiosities".
