Hamilton police are searching for $80,000 worth of X-ray equipment that was stolen from a van parked on the Mountain earlier this month.

Police say that sometime during the night on Feb. 2, someone broke into a van owned by STL Diagnostic Imaging, which provides mobile X-ray and ultrasound services.

The van was parked in the area of Heatherdale Place and Duncairn Crescent, near Garth Street and Stone Church Road West.

Police say $80,000 worth of equipment was taken, including an X-ray machine mounted on a two-wheel cart, and a panel device used for examinations.
