The Keeper statue stolen from Planeview Park has been recovered

The Keeper statue that was taken from Wichita’s Planeview Park by vandals over the weekend has been found and returned to Together Wichita, the group that initiated the Keeper 150 project. But it’s so badly damaged that it’s not likely repairable, they said on Tuesday. On Monday, a resident spotted the missing statue in the grass beside a creek that runs by Colvin Elementary School, said Tessa Brungardt, who manages the Keeper project for Together Wichita. That resident called Brungardt, who alerted the city of Wichita. Its maintenance workers retrieved the statue on Monday evening. The creek is not far from Planeview Park, 2819 Fees St.
