Police disguised as Lunar New Year lion dancers capture art thief

Johnny Mac presents five good news stories: In Scotland, hikers rescued four dogs after they fell through snow near a cliff, and a rope-lowered rescuer recovered Aggie, a five-year-old spaniel, from a hole after a cold night at 3,000 feet. In Thailand, police disguised as Lunar New Year lion dancers tackled a 33-year-old repeat offender suspected of stealing about $81,000 in Buddhist objects and two 12-inch statues. In California, over 90 fish stocks have been nearly rebuilt after 25 years of regulations including a trawl ban, a $46 million vessel buyback, and catch-share monitoring; NOAA also reports 94% of US ocean and Gulf stocks aren’t being overfished. A 69-year-old swimmer’s $2,000 titanium prosthetic leg was found 10 months later and returned via Facebook. In Austria, the “King of the Freaks” set a Guinness record by passing 10 uninflated balloons through his nose and out his mouth in one minute.
