A bronze statue of first lady Melania Trump has been stolen in her native Slovenia — after a brazen perp cut it off at the ankles.
The towering sculpture, which was anchored to a tree stump in a field near Melania’s hometown of Sevnica, vanished on Tuesday, Agence France-Presse reported.
Cops said the life-size statue had been cut off at the feet.
“The theft was reported on 13 May and immediately police officers visited the crime scene and launched an investigation,” a police spokesperson said Thursday.
The sculpture — created by American conceptual artist Brad Downey — had been erected after arsonists torched a wooden one resembling the first lady back in 2020.
Downey said he was “a bit sad that it’s gone.”
“My feeling is that it has something to do with the new election [of Donald Trump], but who knows, right?” the artist said.
The first lady was born in Novo Mesto in 1970 but grew up in the town of Sevnica when Slovenia was part of the Communist nation of Yugoslavia.
