INVESTIGATIONS are continuing into the disappearance of six barrels of gas housed at the Erin Police Station which were seized days earlier.

Police reports said officers were on mobile patrol along Erin Beach around 6 am on April 8 when they noticed 15 blue plastic barrels unattended under a shed about ten feet off the road.

Finding this suspicious, they checked the barrels and found they were all filled with gas. Despite checking for about half an hour, they could not locate the owner.
