Olympic memento among stolen loot

By Aneeka Simonis

AN OLYMPIC memento was among the prized loot stolen from a Pakenham home in broad daylight last month.
Cardinia Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) are continuing to investigate the brazen burglary at the Ahern Road home in Pakenham more than a month on, in hope they can reclaim some of the valued items.
An engagement ring, diamond earrings, a gold bracelet and necklace were also stolen from the home between 9.30am and noon on Wednesday 10 August.
Offenders also took a DVD player, a waterproof camera and signed basketball from the London 2012 Olympics for the Australian Boomers.
Police said offenders forced open the front security door and main door to gain entry to the home.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
