Police in Council Bluffs are asking for help in finding the person or persons responsible for the theft of an antique cast-iron fountain worth about $7,000. The Daily NonPareil reports the 6-foot tall fountain was stolen sometime between Noon and 5-p.m. Tuesday, from a residence at 151 Park Avenue, in Council Bluffs.

The owner, 74-year old Bill Mann, said he believes the fountain was targeted so it could be melted and sold for cash, which Police say is a common practice for metal thieves. According to Council Bluffs metal recycling centers, iron is worth about 10 to 20 cents per pound, which means the fountain would sell for $50 to $100.

Mann said it would be difficult for someone to remove the fountain because it was welded to a concrete base and the house is located on a steep and lengthy hill. The fountain was among several additions to the house, which was renovated to look similar to the Historic General Dodge House. The fountain was installed about three years ago after the house underwent several renovations.

Mann said previous burglary attempts have included urns and other lawn ornaments.  A cash is being offered by Mann and his spouse for any tips that lead to an arrest related to the theft. Anyone with information about the theft is urged to call the Council Bluffs Police Department at (712) 328-5737.
