British find Declaration of Independence…

British find Declaration of Independence… more than 200 years late.

The Associated Press is reporting the British discovered a rare original copy of the American Declaration of Independence "several months ago".

According to the article, British National Archives spokeswoman Frances McDarby said it was "possible that an American coastal vessel was intercepted by the British navy and that is how the document was able to come into our possession."
