A stolen vehicle which was torched in Cherbourg on Thursday night is believed to be linked to a bag snatch in Murgon earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

Police are appealing for public assistance after the silver Mitsubishi Triton was abandoned on Murray Road, Cherbourg, about 9:50pm and set on fire.<\/p>\n

A police spokesperson said the vehicle was believed to be involved in another incident about 6:20am.<\/p>\n

An occupant of the Triton allegedly stole a woman\u2019s bag on Lamb Street in Murgon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two males then drove off towards Cherbourg.<\/p>\n

The police spokesperson said the Triton was stolen from an address in Fitzgibbon about 3:15am on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

On Thursday morning, Cherbourg State School posted on social media that due to a stolen vehicle in the community “our bus service will not be operating this morning until we are able to ensure the safety of our students and staff”.<\/p>\n

Police are urging anyone with information, or relevant vision of the vehicle, to contact CrimeStoppers on 1800-333-000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
