Missing lung recovered

Organizers of a traveling exhibition about the human body breathed a sigh of relief on Thursday after an anonymous telephone tip off led to the recovery of a stolen lung. The caller, who did not claim the posted US$2,000 reward, directed staff at “Bodies Revealed” to a car park, where the organ was found in a plastic bag. The lung was stolen on Monday, but organizers said there was little concern it may rot or otherwise spoil, thanks to chemical treatment.
