ANCIENT MAYAN ARTIFACT STOLEN

A rare jade King Pacal

carving was stolen from the Beech Hill Museum in Northeast Washington DC. Police have taken samples for analysis at the crime lab.

Other evidence was found by teen super sleuth Nancy Drew. There was a paper with a red handprint and glyphs translating to "the Magician suffers yellow death." This paper may connect similar thefts in Topeka, Kansas, and in New Mexico.

According to Joanna Riggs, the museum's curator, she and the Board of Directors (BOD) need to get a move on the insurance claim.

Franklin Rose of the BOD needs Detective Drew to investigate.

Alejandro del Rio, the attaché at the DC Mexican Consulate, was running late to return papers about Beech Hill's loan of a rare monolith. Assuming a wire was tripped, he kept going.

Taylor Sinclair, a local art dealer, was worried about the museum being robbed of something by the red-handed thief. He was in the building at the time of theft.

More updates are going to be in following stories and/or newsletters.
