Something fishy as giant mackerel statue goes missing at aquarium

A SIX-FOOT statue of a mackerel has been stolen following graduation celebrations in a Scots town.

Staff at an aquarium are said to be ‘gutted’ following the theft of the figure, nicknamed Big Mac.

The model of the fish has stood guard outside St Andrews Aquarium in Fife for the past four years. However, staff noticed the eye-catching statue was not in its usual spot after last Friday’s graduation festivities in the town.

Managing director John Mace said: ‘Big Mac went missing on Friday, June 29, and he was last seen heading in the direction of the town centre. He’s quite heavy and it would probably have taken two or three people to lift him.

‘Staff are gutted by his disappearance and we would love to have him back.’
