The Newtown Art Gallery on Costable Street was broken into the middle of the night. Fifty works of art were stolen from the gallery. Apparently, a number of thieves worked together so that they could finish quickly.

Police are investigating at the moment. They are also questioning the gallery's workers to collect additional information.

The theft was discovered by the gallery's manager, Mr. Edward Anderson, when he arrived at work this morning. A window was broken in order to enter the gallery. Forty paintings and ten sculptures were reported missing. According to police, a van was seen as it was leaving the gallery at about three o'clock this morning. The van was grey and the name of a local shop was written on it.

AND NOW?
