The West Virginia
Capitol has lost its bears.
Three stuffed bears that stood outside the attorney
general's office for the last decade have been returned to their owners.
The Charleston Daily Mail reports that Attorney General
Darrell McGraw's staff removed the bears on Monday.
Former Secretary of State Ken Hechler bought two of the
bears in the 1980s and put them outside his office. When Hechler left office in
2001, he loaned the bears to McGraw.
A third bear owned by former senior assistant attorney
general Rex Burford joined the display later.
Hechler's bears have taken up residence at his Charleston
office.
Burford now lives in Wilmington,
N.C. He says his bear will be given to
someone in West Virginia.
