Stolen Baby Jesus Returned with Apology Note



A Christmas miracle unfolded in Fort Collins, Colorado, when a stolen Baby Jesus statue was returned to a local fire station just days before Christmas. The statue had been taken from a nativity scene, sparking disappointment in the community. However, the holiday spirit was revived when the statue was dropped off anonymously at the fire station, accompanied by a handwritten apology note from the thief. The note read, "I am really sorry... I made a dumb mistake in the moment... it won’t happen again."

The theft had left many in the community upset, but the unexpected return of the statue, coupled with the remorseful apology, brought a sense of relief and joy. Local police were able to recover the Baby Jesus but did not reveal any further details about the identity of the person who left the note. Despite the lack of closure, the heartfelt apology was seen as a small redemption during the holiday season. As the case remains unsolved, the act of returning the statue has certainly made this Christmas season one to remember for Fort Collins residents.
