Two cameras stolen during a burglary early this month have since been resold by a city centre shop.
The two cameras, one of which belonged to the victim’s grandfather and was made in the 1960s, were stolen during a burglary at a flag on Craggs Row, close to Moor Lane, in Preston on 8 January.
Since then, they have been sold ‘in good faith’ by a shop in the city centre, police said.

An investigation is underway as police try to reunite the cameras with their owner.
A spokesperson for police said: “They were stolen during a burglary at a flat on Craggs Row in Preston on 8th January and have since been resold in good faith from a shop in the City Centre.
“One of the cameras, a 35mm film camera from the 1960s, is of considerable sentimental value and belonged to the victim’s late grandfather.
“Did you recently purchase these items? We would ask that you consider getting in touch with us so that we can potentially reunite the victim with these treasured items.
“We are continuing to investigate this burglary and ask that anyone with information contacts us on 101, quoting the log number 902 of the 8th of January 2025.”
