MOREHEAD: Police arrested two men after they stole a lizard from an animal hospital and tried to pawn it for alcohol. Police told The Ledger Independent that 44-year-old man and an 18-year-old teen stole the 18-inch bearded dragon from Eagles Landing Pet Hospital last week.

The lizard, known as "Big," is back at the veterinary clinic.
The 44-year-old man was released Monday from the Rowan County Detention Center after posting $500 bond. The teen was still being held Tuesday for the same amount.
