The statue of the Risen Christ in Vittoriosa ended up without a left arm after an incident during the morning procession on Sunday.

The statue was being carried on one of the traditional runs when it hit a wire and the arm - which held a flag - was damaged and had to be removed.

This statue was made by Salvu Psaila in 1833.
