10 wayward garden gnomes found on Montana trail

HELENA, Mont. — Helena police are looking for the homes of 10 wayward gnomes found on a Mount Helena trail.

Police Chief Troy McGee says the gnomes were found Monday evening on a popular hiking trail on the city’s south side.

The gnomes are believed to be stolen, but apparently their owners haven’t reported them missing.

McGee tells the Independent Record that police contacted residents who have recently reported their garden decorations stolen and have not been able to find any matches.
