Two large bass instruments and a euphonium were stolen from the St. Peters Church in Cambridgeshire on April 23rd. The instruments are worth around £20,000 so it was a significant loss for the church especially since it was not covered by insurance. The Cambridgeshire Constabulary were investigating the crime and needed more information.
Chairman Peter Sutterby said: “I am extremely saddened at this loss as the band still has fees to pay and replacing the instruments will be very costly, around £23,000 roughly."
