Odd News #1

I read various news sites daily and often run across strange and random articles that could only be fabricated. However this is not the case. In the odd news posts, I will share some of the most... interesting news reports. 
This... interesting... news of the day comes from none other than Fox News. Enjoy!

CLEAR LAKE, Iowa -- An artificial arm and leg stolen last summer from a prosthetic limb maker in Clear Lake have been found -- sticking out of a snow bank.
The limbs, valued together at about $30,000, were found last Saturday, police said. They were in good condition and returned to Tom Leisure.
The limbs were stolen from Leisure's business in July. There [sic] were designed for individuals, and have no value to the general public.
Police speculate that local teenagers stole the limbs to use as props for a prank.
 
At least they weren't stolen from the unfortunate individual who was to receive the limbs. That would have been just sick. However, the fact that the limbs were stolen in July and found in a snow bank six months later either implies some serious prank planning or... some strange reason that I can not fathom.
