in this case reading the news paper story ,they are not giving out the make ,type ,model involved .
By not giving the details they are no doubt hoping to retrieve it. Once the serial numbers are aired the gear will end up in the nearest river.
In our town it's standard practise for thieves to offload what they can and then dump the rest off the 'cut' bridge. If they under slung the bridge with a net they would recover everything that was stolen for miles around!
Personally I would prefer it to be publicised and lost. Don't want any gear back that someone has manhandled. That's what insurance is for.
