LOCAL POOL CRIME – SPURTLE PICTURE EXCLUSIVE

Submitted by Editor on Thu, 01/04/2010 - 07:20

A Broughton pensioner has been robbed in broad daylight whilst inspecting refurbishment work at Glenogle Baths on 31 March.

Una Kwiecień (75), pictured exclusively by Spurtle in the seconds before the incident, was chatting to 'mystery bathers' brought in by Council officials to test new Winter Spa facilities prior to re-opening.

'One minute everything was grand,' said Mrs Kwiecień, 'the next minute my bag was lifted.'

A banana skin, half-sucked pandrops, and empty packet of roasted cashew nuts belonging to the victim were later recovered from the scene.

Police are keen to eliminate from their enquiries 'a fresh-faced, well-knit young man with great hair and an odd accent'. See also 'Extras'.
