Trudie Preiss almost always wears her rings, so imagine the shock she felt when she realized they were missing from the desk in her room.
"I felt really bad thinking that maybe I had been careless," said Preiss.Preiss and her family realized three of her rings were stolen from her room at The Bridge Assisted Living Facility in Colorado Springs. The theft reportedly happened while she was in the hospital.After notifying staff members, the facility reached out to Colorado Springs Police , saying they recently had issues with a former staff member and thought the missing rings might be connected to her.
Officer Nate Ferrari was assigned to Preiss's case. He scanned a database and found the former employee pawned items on Sept. 17. After visiting Preiss, he learned the wedding band had an inscription inside. The pawn shop confirmed one of the three rings they had matched that description.Ferrari was able to return the rings to Preiss on Oct. 5, her 98th birthday.He and Preiss have developed a special bond since he solved her case.This story was originally reported by Natalie Chuck on koaa.com.
