Have you seen this statue?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

A Mt Wellington widow is devastated after thieves stole this memorial dedicated to her late husband.

The 50cm koru sculpture was swiped from her garden last week.

Officers have appealed to the public for help.

"We understand it can have a devastating impact, especially when sentimental items or things which mean a lot to you and your loved ones are stolen," police said.

"We want to help return it (the statue) to her and her family."

If you have any information call 105 quoting file number 210216/2164 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
