Shotgun Stolen After Being Left 'Unattended'
The powerful double-barrelled weapon was snatched after it had been unloaded from a car in Fulham, west London.
Detectives are hunting for a double-barrelled shotgun which was stolen after its owner left it "unattended" on a London street.
The powerful Beretta EELL 12-gauge weapon disappeared after it had been unloaded from a car in Fulham at around 7.30pm on Thursday.
Police said a man picked up the gun in its brown leather case while it was "unattended" outside a building in Langthorne Street.
The man "made inquiries as to who the owner was" before snatching it, police added.
Detective Sergeant Matt Besch said: "We would urge this person who has found the shotgun, to contact us so its recovery can be arranged, and we can ensure it does not fall into the wrong hands."
The gun is described as having a dark brown stock with "rose-style" engraving on the handle. Its wooden parts are said to look "tatty" from not having been oiled.
