On the hunt for a pair of missing statues. The two were stolen from Woodward Park in Tulsa at 21st and South Peoria. It is believed they were taken sometime last Thursday.

City of Tulsa horticulturist Maureen Turner says a statue of a cherub was broken off from the top of a fountain. The other statue taken is a bronze of the Greek god Pan. Both statues were in the park's rock garden.

Turner says stealing the statues was no easy or quick task for the thieves. She says both statues are heavy.

Along with the thefts of the statues which have been in the popular park for decades, Turner says there was some additional damage done to the fountain.
