HUMBERSIDE POLICE are appealing for information following a theft from a commercial business in Ottringham.
The theft occurred between midnight on Monday 9th May and 10:00am on Tuesday 17 May 2011 when someone broke into the Woolaball Paintball centre and stole several items including:
- 15 x camouflage smoke grenades
– 6x 20 ounce paintball gun gas canisters
The smoke grenades are approximately the size of a Red Bull can with the words ‘Camouflage Smoke Grenade’ written vertically down the side in black lettering. On the rear are brief instructions from the manufacturer ‘Octavius Hunt’.
The items produce a wall of thick mustard coloured smoke which is emitted for approximately 30-40 seconds. This device burns at extremely high temperature and can cause significant burns if handled incorrectly. They also pose a risk of fire due to them being powered by an intense flame.
Detectives investigating the burglary are appealing for anyone that may know the whereabouts of these items to come forward and would request the holders of these items not to handle them but to contact police to safely remove them.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Humberside Police on 0845 60 60 222 quoting crime reference 1835439.
