A man found several stolen glass sculptures designed by artist Dale Chihuly in a vacant lot less than a mile from where they had been taken, authorities said Wednesday.The red glass reeds were found Tuesday in poor condition in and around a trash pile, said Detective Peter Cuervo, a spokesman for the Coral Gables Police Department. Eight reeds had been stolen from the exhibit at the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and authorities believe they recovered them all.
“It looks like they were just thrown and discarded,” Cuervo said.

So how do we know they were in poor condition?
I agree Dale Chihuly is okay but putting him on an ivory tower is really pushing it. And some of his work, well how can you tell it is broken or not?
"I thought they were made out of candy!" Say disappointed art thieves.
"Dude, I bet these are bongs! Let's get prepped for April 20."

Suspects reportedly include every thinking art critic in the United States and Canada.
