A worrying sexual twist to a sleepout burglary in Canterbury has
sparked a police appeal for information. Five pairs of knickers were
stolen when the small sleepout was ransacked the weekend before last
while the 19-year-old female occupant was away. The door of the
sleepout, at the back of her family's property in Rolleston, was
unlocked.
Constable Chris Caldwell described the scenario as "disturbing".
"Several drawers were tipped out in an apparent attempt to look for
money or jewellery while the teenage girl was away. What is disturbing
though is that five pairs of knickers were stolen, " he said.
Evidence showed that so- called "minor" sexually-related offending such
as this could escalate over time to more serious offending. "We would
like to hear from anyone who has come across or discovered underwear not
belonging to them or a family member." TOT News
