A 50-pound fiberglass dinosaur named Claire, which was stolen from a Los Angeles gas station, has now been returned by the thief along with a note. 

The prehistoric mascot was stolen last week, and it was all caught on video.

The footage showed the person using power tools to remove Claire, loading her into the bed of a pickup truck that pulled up alongside the fuel pumps, and driving away.

The story got a lot of traction, and on Monday, a clerk arrived at work to see Claire had been returned along with a note that read, “I’m sorry for stealing. Please don’t charge me!”
