    Tasmania police say a "significant amount" of property linked to burglaries across Hobart was able to be recovered this month thanks to "detailed information" given by an anonymous tipster. Crime Stoppers, a not-for-profit that works to assist police, say a reward of up to $2,000 is available and has appealed to the tipster to claim it. Over the years, the charity has helped to solve some of Tasmania's most notorious crimes.
