Chester Missing - lost‚ then found in France

Ventriloquist Conrad Koch says his puppet Chester Missing is en route to South Africa‚ after being located in Paris‚ France.

The puppet was checked in as luggage on an Air France flight‚ but went missing when Koch returned from a gig at the Just for Laughs comedy festival in Montreal‚ Canada.

“I'm found! AF: baggage item XXXXX is currently being transported to your arrival airport JNB. We will contact you about delivery. Air France‚” Koch tweeted from his puppet’s twitter handle @chestermissing.

His 'alter ego' was not in a good mood about it‚ saying: “Go to hell Conrad. I told you to buy me a seat on the plane”.

“I have been locked in this suitcase for 4 days now and it's pissing me the hell off!! Kermit wouldn't stand for this crap.”
