| Event Description | The State of Colorado, Radioactive Materials Unit reported the following via email:
On February 22, 2021, at approximately 1230 [MST], the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) was notified that a shipment of lutetium-177 dotatate was involved in a stolen vehicle incident. The incident occurred during a shipment via courier to the University of Colorado Hospital, CO 828-01; the shipment originator is Advanced Accelerator Applications. The courier's vehicle was recovered by the Aurora Police Department and the vial of lutetium-177 dotatate was found on the driver's seat of the vehicle and had been removed from the shipping container. The University of Colorado Hospital will be taking possession of the material. Isotope: lutetium-177. Activity: 200 mCi. Aurora Police Case Number: 2021-7342. The situation is currently unfolding and more information will be available at a later date. Colorado Event Report ID No: Unassigned. Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
