Fascinating! This happened three days ago.


To be as fair as is possible, if not especially tempting, that was
the latest in a very possibly ongoing string of thefts of bronze
statues.

Visitors to Europe should certainly be advised not to bring large,
valuable bronze statues with them as they may be at risk.


Excellent advice- might I also helpfully suggest not taking your
Vermeers with you to Boston!


There are art thieves in Lincolnshire too? Is Market Rasen still
safe?
