Brazen thieves have scaled the front of a Canterbury diner and pinched its prized Spiderman figure.

Thieves have stolen the Spiderman figure from Elsie Mo's Diner in Burgate.

“The figure cost about £150 to £200 and the cost of fitting it takes it to about £400 or £500, but this is more about the principle of the thing,” the 48-year-old said.
“I’ve said that whoever took him can come in and see us and we can work something out before the police get round to seeing them.”
Elsie Mo’s opened in August last year as a classic American diner with a 50s theme including roller-skating waitresses and a mural featuring superheroes.
