NY police find UK couple who lost ring during romantic proposal
Police in New York have found the couple who got engaged in Times Square on Friday but lost the ring down a grate, BBC reported.
The NYPD tweeted on Sunday that arrangements were being made to return the ring to the pair, who are from the UK.
CCTV images showed the couple unsuccessfully trying to retrieve the piece of jewellery.
But police officers later managed to rescue and clean it.
They have been named by NYPD as John and Daniella, who said they had now returned home.
The footage taken just before midnight on Friday doesn't show the moment the man pops the question but we do see him getting down on one knee in an attempt to find the ring.
His fiancée, who police confirmed said "Yes", puts her hands to her face when she realises what has happened.
She crouches down next to him, trying to help but they are unsuccessful.
Officers from the New York Police Department clearly have a romantic side and, more importantly, access to the grate, so could get it out quite easily.
