Bracelet found in chicken after 25 years

More than two decades after Aaron Giles lost his identity bracelet, a meat cutter at Olson Locker in Fairmont, Minn. discovered the shiny object in a chicken gizzard and saw a name, address and phone number engraved on it, and returned it to Giles.

Associated Press explains that Giles had lived in Fairmont as a child and played hide-and-seek and other games with his brothers in their grandfather’s barn near Sherburn.

The 31-year-old Giles said,

"I would spend most of my time out at his farm, and that’s the only place I can think of that I would have lost it."

Giles figures the bracelet was lost when he was 4 or 5.

The barn was dismantled a few years ago, and Giles thinks his bracelet was imbedded in materials used to construct another barn in Elmore, about 45 miles away.

The bracelet was found in a chicken that came from an Elmore farm.
