Dear Anne,

One of our museum display specimens was stolen out of its case -- most likely just before Christmas break, during opening hours. The case has a security alarm, but apparently the theft was not recorded as an alarm by UNM police. I discovered the that specimen was missing this morning when I was doing an inspection of the Meteorite Museum. The specimen is a "Sikhote Alin" weighing 9490 grams. I would like to alert the meteorite collector community to be on the look-out for this specimen, it is unique and easily identifiable as our property.
