Jose Fernandez jersey returned to Alonso High School

The Jose Fernandez jersey taken from Alonso High School's vigil on Wednesday has been safely returned.

Last night, a family saw a large envelope leaning up against the ticket booth at Alonso High School with the words "Jose's jersey" written on it. The family brought the envelope into the school Friday morning, where it was opened and confirmed that Jose's jersey was in fact inside.

An Alonso High School representative released the following statement:

"The entire Alonso High School family is grateful to have the jersey back and would like to thank the media and the outpouring of social media posts which shared this story."
