A restaurant owner who celebrated the Queen’s death by shouting ‘Lizard Liz is dead’ while drinking champagne had her shop windows smashed in.
Photos shared on social media show her restaurant’s shattered window as furious locals vandalized her property, pelting the store with ketchup and eggs.
Jaki Pickett, the owner of Jaki’s Fish and Chip Shop, held up a board that read: “London Bridge has fallen.”
After sharing a video of her celebrating the death of Britain’s longest-serving monarch on Facebook, Pickett was blasted online for disrespecting the Queen.
A photo of the damaged window was posted on Twitter with the caption: “Jaki’s chip shop smashed up again.”
Many Twitter users condemned the destruction, with one saying: “What she did was despicable but it doesn’t condone violence and death threats.”
A spokesperson for Police Scotland also said: “Officers received a report of damage to a property in the Seaforth Road area of Muir of Ord, which is thought to have happened between 7.30pm on Friday, 9 September, and 10.30am on Saturday, 10 September, 2022.
“Enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances.”
Police were called to the restaurant after it was targeted by locals who egged the windows.
Photos showed egg mess over the windows, eggshells on the ground, and ketchup on a bench.
David Mackey from Muir Ord said he was left furious after seeing the post.
“The comments on her Facebook page were disgusted and against her, quite rightly so,” he said. I heard that large crowds headed down to the chip shop and were protesting outside.
“Some threw eggs at her window, some squirted tomato ketchup over the windows.”
He also said that the owner of the restaurant was seen driving away with a police escort and her vehicle was pelted with rocks.
“It made me feel angry,” he added. “It’s given Muir of Ord a bad reputation. Some English people might think that we are all laughing and celebrating about the queen dying but that is not the case at all.”
