Following up on a story from a couple of weeks ago, it looks like some sighs of relief are being had at the University of British Columbia's Museum of Anthropology. After some sort of mysterious thief broke in during the dead of night, somehow outwitting the museum's high-tech security system, they made off with fifteen pieces, most of which were made of gold and created by Bill Reid. Now it's being reported that raids have been conducted somewhere outside of the city and a number of the pieces were recovered and said mysterious thief was put in custody. So we say to you, dear Mounties: Bravo! You've served Vancouver well.

RCMP said yesterday that they had executed search warrants in the Lower Mainland, which led to the recovery of at least some of the $2-million worth of art stolen from the museum.

"For the past four days, they've been working absolutely around the clock on this," RCMP spokesperson Constable Annie Linteau said.
