Associated Press
SPRINGFIELD, Ore. — A number of gnomes and other creatures have taken sanctuary at the Springfield police station.
As part of a prank, somebody stole 75 lawn ornaments from around town and placed them meticulously on and around the lawn of one house on Oct. 17, police said.
Among the figurines are plastic and porcelain geese, deer, frogs are gnomes.
Police took them back to the station to help find the rightful owners.
"We need to get them out of here," Capt. Richard Harrison said. "Every time I leave my office they're sitting in my chair, working on my computer. I can't seem to get rid of the darn things."
The figurines will be put out for public viewing on Tuesday.
"If they come here and they can identify it we're more than happy to let the gnome go home," Harrison said.
Figurines that aren't claimed will be sold at auction.
"You're either lying or stupid."
"I'm stupid! I'm stupid!"

I hope that the Gnome from the Travelocity commercials was not kidnapped.

I'm willing to bet that meth was involved in some way.
