AFP - Limbless French adventurer Philippe Croizon, known for his feats of swimming and diving, has had his custom-designed wheelchair stolen while on holiday in northern France.
Croizon, famed as the first quadruple amputee to swim across the English Channel, appealed to the thieves to return the wheelchair.
"They haven't just stolen my wheelchair, they've stolen my autonomy," Croizon told AFP after the theft of the wheelchair and its trailer, which he discovered missing on Friday morning while staying with friends near Dieppe.
"I feel sad and angry," he said. "Let them keep the trailer if they want, but at least give back the wheelchair."
