flag Thieves stole 23 heavy sandstone blocks from a public area in Australia, prompting police investigation and temporary barrier installation.

flag Thieves stole 23 sandstone blocks—over 25 tonnes total—from The Esplanade at Speers Point, Australia, in a late-night theft described as "brazen" by local authorities. flag Each block measured two meters by 50 centimeters and weighed 1.1 tonnes, having been installed in July to prevent vehicle parking on grass near a football facility. flag The theft, which likely required multiple trips or more than one vehicle, occurred on a busy, visible road. flag The council estimates the loss at $10,000 including installation. flag Police have been notified, and the public is urged to report any information or dashcam footage. flag Temporary water-filled barriers will be installed to maintain vehicle control, following similar measures at Warners Bay and Toronto foreshore to comply with NSW Police vehicle mitigation rules.
