FORT COLLINS, Colo. — After four days, it seems the person who stole a central part of a Fort Collins nativity has seen the error of their ways.

The Baby Jesus figurine was reportedly stolen from the Old Town Square Nativity sometime Sunday. The Fort Collins Police Services took to X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday afternoon to announce that the statuette was anonymously dropped off at Poudre Fire Authority Station #1.
