The Greeley Police Department recently shared this report from late last month: "Police responded to the 2100 block of 35th Avenue Court after a woman complained that someone stole the remote control for her television cable box. The officer helped the woman find her remote."

No one stole them. You came home drunk last night and dropped them in a potted tree you mistook for your manservant. Which you don't have.
