The couple, who asked not to be named, were staying at Madingley Hall near Cambridge on a visit to the UK.

When they returned, they were 'devastated' to find that jewellery worth approximately £10,000 had been stolen from their room – which they said was locked and secure when they left. The couple immediately reported the incident to the hotel management and the police. The husband said: "This incident has deeply shaken our trust in hotel safety during our UK travel." A Cambridgeshire Police spokesperson said: "We were called on 27 November with reports that a room was broken into at a hotel in Madingley, Cambridge between 4.20pm and 8.30pm that day.

This is an excerpt from The Buzzer, which is CBC Sports' daily email newsletter. Stay up to speed on what's happening in sports by subscribing here . Here's our weekly look at the top performances by Canada's Olympic athletes on Saturday and Sunday. But first, some news involving an international star. Alpine skiing: Shiffrin crash costs her a big win Mikaela Shiffrin was on the verge of becoming the first alpine skier ever to reach 100 World Cup wins when the American star was injured in a crash during Saturday's giant slalom race at Killington resort in Vermont. Shiffrin led after the first run and had the finish line in sight on her final run when she lost an edge and went head-over-skis into the safety netting lining the course. She suffered a deep puncture wound on the right side of her abdomen but appeared to escape any other significant injuries, the U.S. ski team said. "Something stabbed me," Shiffrin said in a video she posted on social media . There's no timeline yet for her return. A controversial new rule requires alpine skiers to wear airbags that deploy when they crash, but the special vests are only required for the downhill and the super-G — the fastest and most dangerous of the alpine disciplines. Serious injuries are far less common in the giant slalom and slalom. Canada's Valerie Grenier finished ninth in the giant slalom — her first race since a devastating crash ended her season last January. Laurence St-Germain was a season-best seventh in Sunday's slalom. Quebec's Mont-Tremblant was scheduled to host a pair of women's giant slaloms this coming weekend, but they were cancelled due to a lack of snow . The men will be at Colorado's Beaver Creek for the first downhill and super-G races of the season. Here's a look at the Canadians competing there . Freestyle skiing: A special win for Kingsbury World Cup moguls victories are almost routine for Canada's Mikaël Kingsbury, who came into the season opener in Finland with a record 90 of them alongside his eight world titles and 2018 Olympic gold medal. But Saturday's win was Kingsbury's first as a dad, and his three-month-old son Henrik was there for it. "It's so cool to have my family here and win in front of my kid," said Kingsbury, who called it a "top three" moment in his career. WATCH | Kingsbury opens World Cup season in style in Finland: Canada's Kingsbury kicks off World Cup moguls season on the top spot of the podium 2 days ago Duration 1:15 The greatest mogul skier in history Mikaël Kingsbury dominated Saturday's men's moguls event securing the gold medal with a score of 83.90 in Ruka, Finland. Kingsbury won by a comfortable margin over Sweden's Walter Wallberg, who beat him for the Olympic gold in 2022, and Japan's Ikuma Horishima, who took the World Cup moguls championship from Kingsbury last season (Kingsbury retained the dual moguls and overall titles). Canada's Maia Schwinghammer placed fourth in the women's event, matching the best World Cup moguls result of her career (she won a silver in dual moguls last year). Curling: Homan wins another Slam Canada's Rachel Homan skipped her team to a 6-5 win over Sweden's Anna Hasselborg in the women's final at the National on Sunday for their second consecutive Grand Slam title. The reigning world champs went undefeated all week in St. John's to extend their winning streak to 23 games and they're now 40-2 on the season. This was Homan's record-extending 17th career Grand Slam trophy. WATCH | Homan defeats Hasselborg to win Kioti National crown: Rachel Homan captures Kioti National title with victory over Sweden's Hasselborg 1 day ago Duration 1:53 Ottawa's Rachel Homan of Ottawa defeats Anna Hasselborg of Sweden 6-5 in the Kioti National women's final for a record-extending 17th Grand Slam of Curling women's title. Scotland's Bruce Mouat beat Canadian Brad Jacobs 5-3 in the men's final. Mouat's team has won all three men's Grand Slams so far this season. The next Slam is the Masters in mid-January in Guelph, Ont. Speed skating: A so-so weekend for Canada Canada's long track speed skaters have set a high standard for themselves over the last few years. They won five medals at the 2022 Winter Olympics, a national-record 10 at the 2024 single-distances world championships in Calgary, and they opened the current World Cup season with four podium appearances (including a gold) a couple of weekends ago in Japan. But their latest performance fell below those lofty standards as Canada finished with just two medals at the second World Cup stop in Beijing. Isabelle Weidemann took bronze in the women's 3,000m (matching her result from the 2022 Olympics on the same track) and Valérie Maltais earned silver in the women's mass start. Canada was a bit unlucky, though. Ivanie Blondin, who won a medal of each colour at the World Cup opener, crossed the line second in the women's mass start but was disqualified for illegal contact. And Canada placed fourth in both the men's and women's team sprints. American Jordan Stolz starred again, winning four individual gold medals for the fourth World Cup in a row. The World Cup tour continues in January at Calgary's Olympic Oval. Other notable Canadian results: * Freestyle skier Dylan Deschamps won his second World Cup big air bronze of the season in Beijing. He was the only Canadian to qualify for a final in the Chinese capital, which also hosted snowboard big air events. * Canadian track cyclist Dylan Bibic maintained his lead atop the men's endurance standings while Sarah Van Dam sits second in the women's endurance chase through three rounds of the Track Cycling Champions League. The final two rounds go this Friday and Saturday in England. * The Canadian women's rugby sevens team finished eighth at the SVNS Series opener in Dubai. Canada earned a surprising silver medal at the Paris Olympics after upsetting Australia in the semifinals, but the top-seeded Aussies routed Canada 39-0 in Sunday's quarterfinals before beating Olympic champ New Zealand in the title match.

Goalie Thatcher Demko poised to make first Canuck start of the seasonNone
On Jan. 29, 1969, as it was later confirmed, Air Force Capt. Robert Holton of Butte, Montana, made the ultimate sacrifice for his country when his F4 Phantom Fighter was shot down over Laos during the Vietnam War. Sue MacPherson, who hung out with Holton as a teenager, got a silver POW-MIA bracelet with his name on it in 1972. The military presumed him dead in 1973 but he remained missing, so MacPherson kept the bracelet on. But she did more than that. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. She was living in Billings in 1972 and saw the mother of Navy pilot Rodney Knutson of Montana, a POW in Vietnam, on a TV show promoting POW-MIA awareness. “So I contacted her to see what I could do and told her I had a friend who was MIA and she put me in touch with another lady who was doing some stuff,” MacPherson said. “We opened a little office and sold POW-MIA bracelets in Billings, and we got the schools to get POW flags,” she said. “We just did a lot of awareness.” She’s done a lifetime of that now and her never-ending efforts are why she’s among this year’s class of Local Heroes in Butte. “Sue is great example of honor and commitment to our veterans and Butte,” Mary McMahon said in her nomination of MacPherson. MacPherson was at the state Capitol in Montana in 1973 when the Freedom Tree was planted in honor of Holton and other POW-MIAs from Montana. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. In 2009, when MacPherson moved back to Butte, she visited the Freedom Tree and found its plaque covered in pine needles. “It was like they were forgotten so I went on a campaign,” she said. She contacted the governor’s office, got volunteer bricklayers to help, raised $2,500 that paid for a bench and a granite monument, and the American Legion of Helena donated a new plaque. It honors the 22 MIAs from Montana who were lost during the Vietnam War, including nine not listed on the original 1973 plaque, with asterisks denoting those whose remains were since found and returned home. MacPherson, then Gov. Steve Bullock and others rededicated the Freedom Tree at the upgraded site in 2015. In January 2017, remains were excavated at a crash site in Laos and later verified as those of Capt. Holton. They were returned to Butte and Holton’s brother, Bill, in July 2017. Hundreds lined streets as Holton’s casket was escorted into town by 70 motorcycle riders and 20 other vehicles, and Holton was buried at Sunset Memorial Park west of Butte the next day. MacPherson delivered the final touch when she took off her bracelet and laid it on top of the casket to be buried with her lifelong friend. MacPherson co-chaired local efforts this year to bring The Wall That Heals to Butte. The traveling replica of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., was at Father Sheehan Park for five days this summer. During an opening ceremony, MacPherson read the names of at least 22 men who were from Butte or joined military here and were killed in Vietnam. She helped track down some of their family members so they could attend. MacPherson has a new mission now of promoting the In Memory Program, which honors those who served in Vietnam and later died. It is led by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. “I’m kind of on the move, letting people know about it, helping them make an application if they need help,” MacPherson said. “I think every Vietnam veteran should be honored, especially the way they were treated when they came home.” To this day, MacPherson said, MIAs are not forgotten. “They’re finding them every day,” she said. They’re finding soldiers from World War II, which is unbelievable to me. I’m so proud that we’re continuing the search.” Knutson, the Montana POW, survived years of captivity and is living in Montana today. MacPherson had lunch with him this summer.
