Sean Bean's car stolen with a fishin rod
March 23, 2005, 12:59:17 'Lord of the Rings' star Sean Bean's luxury car has been stolen with a fishing rod.
A gang of thieves drove away the British actor's £70,000 Range Rover from his North London home after they cunningly fished the car keys out through his letterbox with a rod and line.
By the time neighbours had noticed the crime in progress and alerted police the criminals were already on their way.
Bean, 45, is believed to have been targeted by the burglars because he is currently filming in Los Angeles. It is suspected the crooks had been monitoring his movements for some time, though it is not known if this is the same band of thieves that raided the actor's house in London's plush Hampstead district last week.
At the time Bean, who is about to reprise his role in the British TV drama 'Sharpe', was said to be "incensed" but a police spokesman said: "The thieves did not escape with much - just a handful of personal items."
Bean, who played Boromir in the Tolkien movie trilo, lives alone at the 2millionGBP property, though he has previously shared it with his third wife, actress Abigail Cruttenden.
The star is the latest celebrity to be targeted in a spate of thefts in London in which thieves have been hitting the exclusive suburbs.
He has just finished working on the science fiction film 'The Island' with Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johannson.
