The second case "syas one in which the bracket was broken to permit the removal of the generator. Both the headlight and generator were rusted in position and the thief had twisted'the bracket back and forth until it smashed. The police have been informed of the theft and it is to be hoped that the culprit or culprits responsible will be apprehended.
