Last month, the folks at Lucille's Luncheonette on the edge of the New Jersey Pine Barrens in Warren Grove arrived at work to find a crime scene in the parking lot.

The beloved wooden statue of the New Jersey Devil that had become an iconic landmark was gone. All that was left was a broken devil wing in the parking lot.

Police soon announced a warrant had been issued for a suspect. But that only sparked more questions among Lucille's regulars.

On today's "Brian's Positively New Jersey,” Brian Donohue heads to Lucille’s for a story of how the folks at the beloved eatery turned the theft into a positive, even before so many mysteries around the case have even been solved.
