Chip shop attacked after owner celebrates death of Queen

A fish and chip shop was "egged by a mob" after its owner appeared on video seemingly celebrating the death of Queen Elizabeth II. In a since-deleted video, the apparent owner of Jaki Fish and Chip Shop, located in the village of Muir of Ord near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands, can be seen standing outside her business with a placard that reads "Lizard Liz is dead! London bridge has fallen" alongside a smiley face, whilst she repeatedly cheers "London Bridge has fallen, woohoo!" and shakes a bottle of fizzy wine in celebration.

It's understood the video was recorded just minutes after news of the Queen's death on Thursday was confirmed - but within moments of its posting, an angry group of local residents reportedly surrounded the takeaway and threw eggs and ketchup at its windows.

In a series of tweets, Twitter user @DavidMackayy shared pictures of the scene and commented on locals' reaction to the fish and chip shop's video. In one tweet, he said: "Just been to Jaki's in Muir of Ord: windows covered in tomato sauce and egged. Shop inside must have been cleaned up, very clean inside, no sign of broken windows as previously suggested."
