After Poulter found her car had been broken into in an Anaheim parking garage, the setter reported the medal as stolen at the end of May. Police detectives later detained a suspect in the robbery, but they were unable to find the stolen medal right away.
However, earlier this week, according to a statement from the police, the proprietors of a barbershop in Anaheim reported discovering the gold medal inside a plastic bag left outside their place of business. They gave it to the authorities, who’ll give it back to Poulter. According to officials, the 31-year-old suspect is accused of breaking into homes and vehicles, stealing identities, and possessing illegal drugs. Also, as per the police’s statement, the suspect, who’s a resident of Anaheim, has a long criminal history.
