Judah Tyreman has started a GoFundMe page to help recoup costs after a break-in to his museum and rock shop. RCMP are investigating.

The Sesula Mineral and Gem Museum and Rock Shop in Radisson, which was started and is run by 13-year-old Judah Tyreman, has been broken into and looted. But Judah vows to keep the shop and museum open.

Early Sunday morning his museum was broken into and looted, says the Tyreman family, with $6,000-$8,000 worth of goods stolen. He started a GoFundMe page the next day to help recoup his costs and the community is rallying around him. 

The teenager spent the last two years building up his rock collection, doing odd jobs and selling specialty jewelry to pay rent for the museum facility he and his sister Avi opened in 2016.
