Gnome find is not gnormal, make gno mistake

August 10 2002 at 02:28PM

Puzzled French police are investigating after a mushroom hunter stumbled on an unexpected find in the middle of a pine forest in south-west France - 101 garden gnomes.

The gnomes, standing 10 to 80 centimetres high, were arranged in a circle, some of them on tree trunks, in the woods in Podensac, south of Bordeaux.

"It was very nice to look at, very tastefully done," said the local police chief, who has put out an appeal for anyone who believes they might have lost their figurines to come and identify them, if possible with photographs to prove ownership.

A shadowy organisation calling itself the Front for the Liberation of Gnomes warned last spring that it was waging "a mass campaign" against the "oppressors and enslavers" of garden gnomes, the local newspaper Sud Ouest said in its report on Saturday. - Sapa-AFP

Heigh ho! Heigh ho! It's off to jail you go

June 14 2002 at 03:47PM

Reims, France - A court in this eastern French city on Friday sentenced a 39-year-old man to one month in prison for stealing a garden gnome, but freed two minors involved in the heist.

The judge sarcastically reprimanded the culprits, saying they "met up with some tipsy dwarves - who were certainly not under Snow White's supervision - who attacked them."

Another of the cheerful figurines was broken during the theft, leading the judge to speculate: "He surely must have been trying to protect his little friends?"

The underground Garden Gnome Liberation Front launched the odd trend four years ago, periodically swiping the statues from gardens in France and abroad and leaving them in forests - their supposed natural habitat. - Sapa-AFP

Garden gnomes take a stand on bank's doorstep

August 01 2000 at 07:07AM

Sydney - About 150 garden gnomes were glued to the steps of Australia's central bank early on Tuesday before the bank's board was to gather for its monthly policy-making meeting.

Sydney police spokesperson Paul Jackson said street- cleaners discovered the gnomes before dawn, but the little plaster statues refused to budge until confronted with the professional cleaning equipment.

"We think the gnomes may have been the victims of a student prank," said Jackson.

The gnomes have been hauled into custody at the city council's depot. Owners wanting to claim a missing gnome would probably be required to produce a photo or detailed description as proof of identity, a spokesperson for the city's mayor said. - Reuters
