  "summary": "A U.S. Navy torpedo lost during a training exercise off Southern California was recently recovered near Ensenada, Mexico, by local fishermen who alerted authorities to its presence. The nonexplosive MK 54 REXTORP practice torpedo, designed for training launches, was later returned to U.S. authorities after Mexico's Navy confirmed it belonged to the U.S. Navy. The fishermen initially believed the object to be floating seaweed, highlighting the unusual nature of their unusual catch.",
