Personal items once belonging to former Beatles musician John Lennon were about to go up for auction in an illegal black market event in Berlin, but a German police in raid on Tuesday captured the items in the nick of time. Three diaries, letters, a pair of Lennon's signature glasses, original recordings of a Beatles concert, and other items were allegedly stolen in New York by a man who worked as the chauffeur of Yoko Ono between 1995 and 2006. Other items were found in the car of a man that has been arrested by authorities on Monday. A different suspect involved in the case is believed to be living in Turkey.
