Police are asking for tips from Calgarians as they try to track down the theft of some medical equipment they say is used by “only a handful of surgeons in Canada.”
In a news release issued Friday, police said the cardiac surgery equipment was stolen from a car in the northwest community of Montgomery last month.
“On Saturday, Sept. 14, 2024, at approximately 2 a.m., an unknown suspect broke into the victim’s vehicle, a 2020 Porsche Macan S, while it was parked on the street of the 4700 block of 19th Avenue Northwest,” police said.
They said the equipment, used for minimally invasive cardiac surgeries, is worth about $28,000.
