By Jo Kennett

A LOCAL family are devastated after their pride-and-joy ‘Troopy’ was stolen at Piggabeen — while its owner was working in aged care.

The family are now appealing for any public help to assist Tweed Police in recoverying the vehicle.

The Toyota Landcruiser Troopcarrier was stolen from Piggabeen on Thursday, May 25.

The owner had parked the vehicle outside the aged care facility she was working in at the time of the theft.

Her daughter, Tamara-lea Cusack, posted on social media, saying the car belonged to her mother, who walked out from work to find it gone.

“It was full of camping stuff and tools and dad’s beers lol,” she said.

The vehicle has NSW registration plates DB-07-NY.

Did you know the Greens are blocking Labor’s $10 billion social and affordable housing plan?

Sign the petition to tell Adam Bandt, and Greens Party MPs and candidates, to stop playing political games and stop blocking Labor’s affordable and social housing for our community.

The Greens are teaming up with the Liberals, Nationals, and One Nation in Parliament to block Labor’s $10 billion Housing Australia Fund. This fund will build social and affordable housing, housing for women and children fleeing domestic violence, and more.

There are people across the North Coast who are relying on this Bill passing Parliament, but the Greens Party is refusing to listen to our community. Add your voice and let them know that teaming up with the Liberals, Nationals and One Nation to block housing for those who need it most is disgraceful.
