It's the big mystery of Ditmas Park today. Staff and customers of Vox Pop Coffee Shop are wondering how and why someone would steal their 8 ft tall statue of Lady Liberty.

The statue disappeared during the early morning hours of Monday morning. Debi Ryan, who runs the cafe was shocked, "Everyone was so happy that she was restored,' she said of the recently refurbished statue.

Ryan and others are in the process of creating a flyer and will paper the neighborhood in the days to come. If you know anything about the missing lady liberty please get get in touch with OTBKB (louise_crawford(at)yahoo(dot)com.
