Homeless man’s 46-year-old guitar stolen by callous thief in Bristol

Police have launched an appeal after a homeless man’s guitar was stolen in Bristol.

The black Keiper 12-string guitar was taken from its owner - a 50-year-old homeless man - near We The Curious in Anchor Road last November.

The 46-year-old instrument is of great sentimental value, as it previously belonged to the owner’s late father.
