Cops wait for man to pass stones

WINDSOR, Ont. -- Police in Windsor, Ont., say it's "one down and two to go" for a man alleged to have swallowed a $20,000 diamond.

Sgt. Brett Corey says the man, 52, passed a stone on Friday morning -- a cubic zirconia, a low-cost fake diamond. Police say the man underwent an ultrasound on Friday afternoon that confirms the presence of two more stones in his intestinal tract.
