Guelph police are investigating after a safe was stolen from a south end home this week after the daughter of the homeowners threw a party.

On Tuesday morning, police were dispatched to a home in the area of Downey Road and Teal Drive. The homeowners were out of town Monday night and their 22-year-old daughter invited several friends over. She did not know all the people who arrived at the home.

The next morning the female noticed her parents’ room had been ransacked and a small safe was missing from their closet. The safe contained more than $5,000 in cash and jewelry, as well as personal documents.

The theft remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call Constable Connor Vaivods at 519-824-1212, ext. 7226, email him at [email protected], leave an anonymous message for Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or leave an anonymous tip online at www.csgw.tips.
