For the second time in the last few days, the Langley RCMP is asking for the public's help to find some stolen items with sentimental value to a local family.
On Oct. 8, someone broke into a home in the 4900 block of 232nd Street, prying open the back door.
The thief or thieves took a number of things, including a TV, a Pentax digital camera and lenses, a 1960s era Roller Flex 8mm camera, a laptop, and a drill set.
They also took a jewelry box, which had a woman's 14 carat gold ring, half an inch wide, with four rows of diamonds, a small woman's wedding band, a nine carat gold framed locket, containing the photograph of a baby, and a nine-carat rose gold pendant with coloured stones on a fine chain.
Some of the jewelry pieces belonged to the victim's grandmother, and dates back as far as 1905, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP.
The laptop and USB drives that were stolen contained all the family's photographs, Marks said. All the backups were apparently taken.
Anyone who has any information about the missing items can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or, to remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers at 1-800222-8477 (TIPS).
