A prosthetic leg reported stolen from a veteran in a wheelchair outside the Eagles-Giants American football game in south Philadelphia was later recovered on a subway train, police said.

Sonny Forriest Jr, who is known for singing for fans outside Phillies and Eagles games, told officers that he had taken off his prosthetic leg during his performance.

He said he was packing up to leave when a woman in her 20s wearing Eagles gear who appeared intoxicated approached and took the leg.
