Teen Prodigy's Musical Instruments Stolen

OXNARD (CBS) — A burglary at an Oxnard home on Sunday has left a teenage prodigy without her musical instruments.

Rachel Flowers, 17, was born premature and lost her sight three months later.

Her mother taught her how to play the piano at age 2 and it was clear from the beginning that she had a special gift.

Police Wednesday continued to search for the thieves, who stole two flutes, a saxophone, a cello and various other items.

In the meantime Rachel was hopeful that the instruments would be returned or replaced so that she could get back to making music.
