PAUL, Minn., Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Minnesota officials said a phone call from a man accused of stealing a tomato led them to property stolen from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Police said Timothy Keith Heidenreich, 39, placed a call Wednesday from the Washington County Jail asking a friend named Terry for help moving "at least $15,000 (worth of) stuff," the St. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer-Press reported. Investigators said Heidenreich, who was in jail for allegedly stealing a tomato from a lunchroom, told the man where to find the items and asked him to move them to a home.

Advertisement Texas man sets record for golf rounds DALLAS, Jan. 21 (UPI) -- A Texas man says he has attained his goal of setting a world record by playing 600 rounds of golf in one year. Richard Lewis set out to last year to get his name in the Guinness Book of Records by playing up to 56 holes of golf a day, WFAA-TV, Dallas/Fort Worth, reported. "These feet have walked 4,000 miles," Lewis, who refused to use a golf cart for his record attempt, said. "I'm addicted; what can I say?" "If nobody knew about this, I would be just as satisfied, because I know I did it and no one else in the whole wide world has ever done it," he said. "That is special to me." Lewis, 64, admits his obsession with the sport led to two divorces, but that the golf course is the place that makes him happiest. "You have to be a little over the edge to do this," Lewis concedes. The Guinness Book of Records required Lewis to sign in and out with golf pros to prove he had completed each round. In the end he played 611 rounds of golf, 11 more than he expected.

The Animal Rescue League of Boston said the 4-year-old sheltie mix, named Gibson, was rescued from the frozen reservoir Wednesday in Cambridge by a team of six rescuers who were able to trap the dog in a net while riding four-wheelers, The Boston Globe reported. Brian O'Connor, rescue services manager for the Animal Rescue League, said the dog's owner said she had been missing for more than a week and she spent several days evading rescuers on the fenced-in pond.
