Justin Bieber 'reunited with stolen hat'

Justin Bieber has been reunited with one of his favourite hats after a fan stole it earlier this week.

The singer was yesterday mobbed by fans at an airport in New Zealand, and had the item snatched from his head during the scrum that also knocked over his mother Pattie.

Bieber later wrote on his Twitter page: "The airport was crazy. Not happy that someone stole my hat and knocked down my mama."

The tweet was met with a quick response when the fan duly returned the garment, though 16-year-old Bieber said that he had not forgiven the culprit.

"I got my hat back," he later posted. "No hugs. no thanks u's. Just glad they did the right thing. I don't condone thievery!! (sic)"
