SOUTH Western Division police have confirmed that an investigation is under way into the disappearance of six barrels of gasoline which had been seized and stored at the Erin Police Station a few days ago.

The barrels, which contained a total of 800 gallons of gasoline with an estimated value of $10,000, were being kept at the station as evidence in a criminal investigation.

The barrels of fuel were found on April 8 near the shoreline of Erin Beach under a make-shift shed.
