A carpet cleaner is accused of swallowing a diamond ring in order to smuggle it out of the house he was cleaning.
The $3,000 ring was recovered Thursday. Daniel Dyament, 19, admitted putting the ring in his mouth in order to smuggle it out of the house, police said.
Maria Reilly was feeding her children breakfast Monday, when Dyament asked if he could use an upstairs bathroom. After the crew left, she discovered the ring was gone.
She called police, who called the carpet company. Dyament was arrested when police learned he was wanted on outstanding warrants. Dyament was charged Tuesday with larceny from a building.
The ring will be returned to the Reillys after it has been used as evidence, police said.
"I'm not really sure what to do with it," Maria Reilly said. "I need to check it out and see how I feel about it."
