The statue of a Hiroshima
The statue of a Hiroshima bombing survivor is missing and believed to be stolen from a Seattle park.
The statue of Sadako Sasaki stood in Seattle's Peace Park for decades, until Friday morning when it was discovered someone stole the statue, cutting it at her ankles.
Those with the University Friends Meeting, a Quaker meeting, are hoping to find it.
"Maybe some people thought nobody cared about this statue, but they are so wrong," said Colleen Kimseylove, office coordinator with University Friends Meeting.
The five-foot, life-size bronze statue of Sadako is a symbol of peace. She's a Japanese girl that was 2 years old when she survived the atom bomb in Hiroshima, but because of the radiation from the bomb, she developed leukemia and died 10 years later.
