Four Olympic medals belonging to Drew Ginn, a member of Australia’s 'Oarsome Foursome' rowing team, were stolen from a car in Melbourne.

Victoria police reported that the medals, along with other items, were taken from a Land Rover parked on Cumberland Street in Docklands between 9pm Thursday and 5am Friday last week.

Ginn had left the medals in his car due to a speaking engagement at a school.

The medals, spanning four consecutive Olympics from 1996 to 2012, hold significant sentimental value and are considered priceless.
