He comes from the classic nursery rhyme!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again

How incredible is that? The bronze statue is valued at $1,400. But the people who left the fair with that statue didn't pay for it, they had the audacity to steal it.

The Madison Police department is now on the hunt for the two suspects who were caught leaving with the statue. Do you recognize them? If you do, contact the Madison Police Department.

The vendor said she had seen two men lingering around her booth while she was setting up Saturday and the sculpture vanished along with the men when she left the stand for a short time. The police were able to match the description she gave to security footage.

If you have any information please contact the Madison Police Department.
