"We ask the public to be on their guard if approached by persons selling such items, particularly if they are being offered at a greatly discounted price,'' Police spokesman P.c. Gary Venning said.

In a second incident on Thursday two television sets and a Fisher video recorder were reported stolen from a house on Lighthouse Hill in Southampton.
