Here is a copy of a post from Facebook: -

We have had a message regarding a burglary at the Sussex Astronomy Centre in Worthing sometime during the night of February 5th or early hours of the 6th.
The following items have been stolen.

2x Celestron NexStar Evolution 8” Telescope. One with the Lens cap missing

1x Celestron NexStar 127mm SLT Telescope

If some one approaches you with a telescope for sale that raises suspicion and might possibly be one of these let Sussex Police and Paul Farmer at the Sussex Astronomy Centre know. Paul can be contacted at 01903 247317.
Your help is very much appreciated. If you think it will help please share this!
