An impassioned plea backed by the power of social media helped farmer Andrew Dickson recover his stolen cow.

It was on Monday that he posted a video on social media asking for assistance to find his missing Angus, Brangus and Red Poll mixed animal.

CBC News was informed late this afternoon, a suspect is in police custody assisting with investigations.

Rachelle Agard has the story.
