Yobs steal century-old brass door handle
Friday 22nd April 2011, 5:00PM BST.
A solid brass door handle believed to be a century old has been stolen from a Newport shop door.
Thieves targeted Clarks shoe shop in High Street last night, removing the handle with screwdrivers.
Bosses at Clarks say the handle was a feature of the shop and branded the theft “unbelievable”.
Manager David Page said: “The theft occurred at some time last night, it makes you wonder what the world is coming to.”
Anyone with information should call 0300 333 3000.
