POLICE are investigating a very large robbery - of a fat vat.
The 1400-litre stainless steel vat was stolen from a McLaren Vale winery, possibly for its scrap metal value.
Police said the vat was first noticed to be missing early yesterday morning.
"The vat is quite large and will stand out," a police spokesman said today.
"So police are asking if anyone has seen a vat being transported in the McLaren Vale area."
There has been a spate of thefts across Adelaide of metal with scrap value, particularly copper.
"The theft of metal continues and it would appear that nothing is off limits for thieves," the spokesman said.
