Baby Jesus has been stolen, again, from the roadside crib on Manwel Dimech Bridge. The same thing happened last year.

A spokesman for Environmental Landscape Consortium, which put up the crib, said that it was during a routine inspection on Sunday that the loss was noted.

The inspections started after last year's incidents when a Bambin in Floriana and a statue of Mary on Manwel Dimech Bridge disappeared a few days before Christmas. They were not recovered.
