From the ABC....

A six-metre inflatable blue koala has been stolen from the roof of a Harvey Norman store in Horsham, in western Victoria.

Police said the koala was untied and dragged from the roof of the store on Firebrace Street in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Staff found it deflated and stashed under some trees a few hours later.

Acting Inspector Brendan Broadbent said they were still trying to work out who was responsible.

"People driving past Harvey Norman in the past couple of weeks would've seen the large inflatable koala over the top of the shop and that was taken and dragged away," he said.

"I'm sure that someone would've seen something because it was approximately a six-metre-high koala, so for people to get up on the roof and take that would've taken some time."

It is believed to be worth about $10,000.

Anyone with information is being urged to contact Horsham police or Crime Stoppers.
