The head has hung in the front lobby for years before it was taken between midnight and 7 in the morning. The Placer County Sheriffs Department searched local pawn shops and taxidermists, as well as online for the moose, to no avail. Finally, Sergent Hunt says they started a media blitz in the hopes that someone had seen the head. It was returned by a local citizen, who said he found it the morning after the theft and took it home with him.
