New Jersey Cops Seek Humpty Dumpty Bandits

Humpty Dumpty took a big fall, and now police are hoping to crack the case. A colorful statue of the nursery rhyme icon was forcibly removed from a structure at a miniature golf course in Cape May, New Jersey, on Sunday and dumped down the street. Local police now say they're looking for two men who are seen on video stopping at Ocean Putt Golf at around 4am, per the AP. Video shows one of them entering the course by climbing over a fence, grabbing and rocking the statue back and forth, and pulling it off its foundation before walking off with it.

The statue, showing a smiling Humpty Dumpty—complete with a big white head, red cheeks, a yellow bow tie, a blue jacket, and gray pants—was found several properties away. In case you missed it, in the nursery rhyme, Humpty Dumpty falls off a wall, and all the king's horses and all the king's men can't put him back together again.

A message was left at a phone number listed for Ocean Putt Golf, whose Instagram page shows the statue above one of the course's holes earlier this year. Cape May police detectives are asking for the public's help in identifying the two men seen in multiple videos posted on the department's Facebook page.
