The Sarnia Police Service has launched a new online tool to help victims of theft and other property crimes.
A new website, called Is this yours?, is now up and running.
It features items recovered by Sarnia police or property items believed to have been stolen, but the owner is unknown, including tools, bikes and jewellery.
If you've had property taken, you can visit the site and claim the items you believe to be yours by filling out the necessary form.
Claimants may also be contacted by police to provide additional information as proof of ownership.
In a news release, Sarnia Police Chief Derek Davis said property crimes are challenging to investigate, as other higher priority incidents often take precedence.
"We have taken steps, such as the implementation of Community Crime Unit, to hold offenders accountable and support the many victims of these frustrating crimes," said Davis. "Whenever possible, we want to see stolen items returned to their lawful owners. 'Is this yours?' is another tool to help us do exactly that."
Victims of property crimes can also report the incident using the Sarnia police online reporting service.
