    DES MOINES, Iowa (KCCI) — Des Moines police are asking for the public’s help locating a unique piece of stolen property.

They say this vintage 1951 MG TD car was taken from a garage at a home on North Valley Drive this week.

Police say the vehicle had been in the garage for more than three decades.

They say the wheels were locked, so the thief likely used a trailer to take it.

Also stolen was a John Deere riding mower and dozens of boxes of antique glassware.

Police are asking people who live in the area to check their security cameras.

They’re also asking anyone who may see the stolen items up for sale somewhere to contact them immediately.

If you have any information about this investigation, contact Detective Miller at 515-283-4857.

You can also submit an anonymous tip through the DMPD mobile app and Crimestoppers of Central Iowa.
