Pa. police find bull semen thought to be stolen

[April 20, 2011]  COUDERSPORT, Pa. (AP) -- Police in north-central Pennsylvania say they've solved the case of the missing bull semen.

Authorities in Sweden Township, near Coudersport, say a package containing 1,770 units of the valuable agricultural product was reported missing from a residence where it was to be delivered on April 2.

Police now tell the Bradford Era newspaper that it was never stolen. Rather, a UPS driver left the package at the home and then returned to retrieve it after realizing it shouldn't have been delivered without someone signing for it.

Township police Chief Bryan Phelps says the package was in a UPS warehouse and has since been delivered.

The township is about 140 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.
