St. Paul, N.B. - RCMP in New Brunswick say more people are coming forward complaining that sex toys and women's underwear were stolen from their homes.

Last Thursday, police reported there had been seven break-ins in the Saint-Paul and Sainte-Marie areas where women's undergarments and sex toys were taken.

They now say four more people have come forward with similar complaints since then.

The thefts, all committed while the homes were empty, began in July.

In one case, officers say lingerie was taken from a clothesline.

Police say they believe there may be more people who had such items stolen but may be reluctant to come forward.

Investigators say they are not sure if more than one person is involved in the thefts.
