Steps have been taken to secure 'Shorty' and there are plans to have a 'Mrs. Shorty' carved to keep him company in front of Peter Richardson’s lobster-roll food truck.A popular wooden fisherman that was stolen from a tourist spot in Peggy’s Cove, N.S., earlier this week is now back in front of his owner’s business.

Richardson said he travelled to Halifax on Saturday night to collect the folksy wood carving from the four women.He said they told him they had heard a rumour that a group of men they know had taken the five-foot-two-inch carving, so they went to the men’s house while they were away and removed it. Meanwhile, steps have been taken to secure Shorty and there are plans to have a Mrs. Shorty carved to keep him company in front of Richardson’s lobster-roll food truck.

Richardson, who bought Shorty last August for $1,000 to help promote his business, said the social media attention the carving’s disappearance generated hasn’t hurt with the tourist season fast approaching.“When Shorty was here he greeted thousands of people,” he said. “People were concerned and they just wanted him to come back.”
