The information is as initially received WITHOUT verification or evaluation, and is basically all that is known by the Agency Staff (Arizona Radiation Regulatory Agency) at this time.</br>At approximately 8:00 AM December 20, 2010, the licensee phoned the Agency (state) to report of a stolen Troxler Laboratories Model # 3430, serial # 36977. The truck from which the gauge was stolen was located at 3330 West Greenway Road Bld. #7, Phoenix, AZ. The gauge contained 8 milliCuries of Cesium-137 and (40 milliCuries (typical) Americium-241: Beryllium). Phoenix Police were notified at 6:00 AM by the employee.
