PITTSBURGH (AP) — The case of the missing Jaromir Jagr bobbleheads has been resolved.

The Pittsburgh Penguins said Monday they have secured the shipment of bobbleheads honoring the NHL’s second-leading career scorer and will begin to distribute them during their home game against Tampa Bay on April 6.

The team had originally planned to hand the trinkets out as part of a promotion on March 14. The shipment carrying the bobbleheads was reported stolen and the giveaway was postponed.

The Penguins said they were notified recently that a special cargo recovery team had negotiated the return of the bobbleheads to a secure warehouse in Ontario, California.
