Case Number: 008

Status: 

Name: Sheila
Alias: The Promenade Predator

Status: At Large.
Despite multiple sightings and overwhelming evidence, Sheila remains at large and is believed to be actively targeting flower beds across the promenade.

Criminal Record:

Sheila first came to the attention of Cat Crimes investigators following a string of incidents involving damaged flower beds, missing plants, and unexplained piles of soil appearing along the local promenade. Witnesses repeatedly reported seeing a fluffy brown-and-white suspect emerging from freshly dug gardens looking unusually pleased with herself before disappearing into nearby shrubbery.

Despite several attempts to apprehend her, Sheila has consistently managed to evade capture by hiding amongst leaves, flower displays, and decorative planting areas. Investigators have linked her to numerous offences including floral destruction, unauthorised excavation, disturbance of public flower beds, and the theft of ornamental leaves. Authorities warn that while Sheila may appear adorable, no flower bed is safe while she remains at large.

Reward:

Information Leading To: Capture, identification, or confirmation of Sheila's current whereabouts.
