TWO British Olympians appealed yesterday for help in recovering a pair of bronze medals that were snatched from a London nightclub.
Rower Alex Partridge and field hockey star Hannah Macleod issued public appeals for the return of the medals, which they earned during the 2012 London Olympics. The thefts reportedly came after Queen Elizabeth II hosted a Buckingham Palace reception in honor of Britain's Olympic team. "I'm absolutely gutted that my Olympic bronze medal has been stolen," Macleod said. "Winning it in August was an incredible highlight for me and for this to have happened is simply shattering."
