The MBTA Transit Police are looking for a woman who they say left South Station with an expensive violin this past weekend—the only problem is, the violin doesn’t belong to her.
The instrument, valued at $40,000, was lost around 12:04 a.m. Saturday. A woman wearing a North Quincy Red Raiders sweatshirt picked up the violin, police say, and as of Tuesday afternoon, it has yet to be recovered.
