The curious case of a stolen first folio of Shakespeare's plays took a new twist yesterday when police in northeast England re-arrested the prime suspect for more questioning . . . Police in Durham said new evidence had been found but wouldn't say what it was . . . The mystery involves a collection of the plays published in 1623 that was stolen from the Durham University library in 1998. Experts said it could be worth more than $28 million (Canadian).
