Cheerleaders Cheer Gone Out as Thief Steals Bunnings Fundraiser

A frightening experience for members of the Cosmic Empire Allstars cheerleading group who were robbed by a stone-hearted thief at a Bunnings fundraiser over the weekend.

Adorning a stolen Navy outfit, a man approached the fundraising group in Bunnings Baldivis with a handful of change, before he jumped over tables and sped off with the $1200 float.

Frightening kids and parents alike, the "horrendous" crime left the fundraiser's in shock.
