Construction Tools Stolen

Police and Crime Stoppers are seeking the public's help after equipment was stolen from a construction site.

Officials say on April Fool's day, unknown suspects approached the site on Talbot Trail, west of Blenheim.

There they removed the lock on a large storage container, taking over $22,000 worth of construction tools.

With that stretch of Talbot Trail being a high traffic area, officials hope someone might have seen something suspicious. Anyone with information is asked to call 519-351-8477, or 1-800-222-8477.
