ST. LEONARD, N.B. — Police say they've found the owner of a Pepsi machine discovered in a New Brunswick potato field.
The vending machine was found abandoned in a field southwest of Grand Falls, N.B. on Sept. 29, but the RCMP were unable to track down its owner.
On Wednesday, police released a photo of an apparently intact machine, lying on its back, and asked for the public's help.
On Thursday, RCMP in Saint-Leonard, N.B., said the publicity gambit had worked.
They say the machine had been stolen from a business in Grand Falls earlier this year.
The RCMP say the file has now been turned over to local police.
