LACROSSE, Wis. – A LaCrosse man has been ordered to pay $6,600  restitution for helping vandals hide the Hatched Baby sculpture they stole from the La Crosse City Hall and desecrated.  Matthew Reich, 20, was spared jail time by Judge Ramona Gonzalez. Reich had pleaded no-contest to concealing stolen property. The statue was found in a yard a few blocks from where it was bashed and spirited away in the night. The statue, by German  artist Wolfgang Auer, was damaged beyond repair.
