TWO stone-age axes stolen in York have been returned.
A dealer came forward after being sold the items, which had been stolen from the Yorkshire Museum in March.
Police are continuing their investigations to try to trace the thief or thieves.
The prehistoric artefacts, each about 15cm long, were part of the handling collection in the museum when they were taken in what police called an “opportunist” theft.
