The University of Wisconsin-Madison Police Department recovered a stolen piece of art with the help of the public and cited the suspect, according to a release.
Madison resident Hildegard Neujahr, 66, said in the release she took the painting from Union South two weeks ago to show her interior designer for color ideas in her home. Neujahr said she thought the artwork was done by a student and acceptable to take.
UWPD cited Neujahr for misdemeanor theft after she cooperated with authorities and thanked the public in the release for offering tips about the location of the art.
