Christopher McCann, 40 has been jailed for 16 months after stealing the statues from the Gorbals.

A man has been sentenced to 16 months in prison for stealing six street sculptures.

McCann was arrested after the two-feet high acorn-shaped sculptures - valued at £54,000 - were discovered in a scrapyard he had sold them to. The court previously heard that the 40-year-old helped rip the sculptures from the ground. McCann and accomplices were spotted by residents putting rope attached to a motor around one of them.
