WORTHINGTON β The missing Trojan statue is back at Worthington High School.
The 6-foot-tall brass statue weighing up to 400 pounds disappeared early Saturday. It showed up at the school Monday night.
Principal Paul Karelis said the statue was taken as a senior prank. He says βthe kids were very cordial about getting it back.β
A citizen called police Monday night about a pickup truck near the school that looked as though people were in the bed of the truck with the statue. Shortly before 9 p.m., the statue was returned.
The Trojan is now bolted back into place in the hallway near the school lobby. The principal says the kids even brought the bolts back.
