Found! Police return Gofriller violin that was stolen on Gatwick Express
mainAt the end of March, Carol Slater had her 1700 Gofriller stolen from the luggage rack of a Gatwick Express train.
British Transport Police, using CCTV camera footage, issued a picture of a woman they wanted to interview.
They recovered the violin from a house in Northwest London and today returned it, slightly damaged, to Carol.
She hopes to play it in a concert with her husband, violist Ian Jewel, at the Belsize Music Festival later this month.
Was this one of the forgotten/left behind ones? I assume it was not snatched at knifepoint.
She was very, very lucky and the police are to be congratulated.
