Gardeners reunited with precious gnomes:-
GREELEY, Colo. | July 21, 2005

Gardeners deluged Greeley, Colo., police with calls to reclaim their prized gnomes from a stash of 80 of the stolen yard-art statues.

Children found 80 6- to 12-inch statues in bags behind an apartment complex on Saturday, police said.

We've been inundated with phone calls, Sgt. Tom Walde told the Rocky Mountain News.

Police set up appointments with people to identify their particular gnome or gnomes.

They're just like little people, only they don't talk to you, said resident Elsie Schnorr, who had 30 statues stolen from her yard.

Schnorr recovered some of the statues stolen from her yard, but will have to wait until spring to replace others.

I don't go out and steal them, that's for sure, Schnorr said. I go out and buy them.
