APB for Ronald McDonald
From Bizarre News - http://www.gophercentral.com/sub/sub-bizarre.html
LINCOLN, Neb. - A Nebraska grandmother wants Ronald McDonald returned to her backyard after thieves made off with the 8-foot fast food icon. The 8-foot statue of the McDonald's clown stood behind Marie Siefker's house in Lincoln for 15 years. But last Saturday, when she pulled into her driveway, the statue was gone. "That was very devastating," she told the Lincoln Journal Star. "I don't know who could be so mean." Siefker, a longtime McDonald's employee, acquired Ronald when the restaurant where she worked was redecorated. The person who was supposed to pick up Ronald failed to show up so she gave him a good home. Ronald has been a popular figure at birthday parties for her grandchildren and at Easter egg rolls and other festivities. She does not know if the thief stole Ronald as a prank or to sell him to a collector.

Ronald has returned. I saw it on the TV news the other night. He's safe and sound, but a little bit scratched.
