Volunteers at a community hall in Wellington have been left flummoxed by the theft of a concrete slab

In the last 12 months, Belmont Hall in Wellington has been the target of a series of bizarre thefts.

Less than a year ago, volunteers discovered their five-foot Coronation rose bush had been stolen in the dead of night.

In December, a six-foot by two-foot banner advertising their community coffee mornings was yanked off the railings. And now, someone has run off with a concrete slab.
