On Christmas Eve 300 kilograms, a total of 32 boxes, of smoked salmon was stolen from Eðalfiskur in Borgarnes, West Iceland, a company that specializes in processing fish.
Three days earlier, the thieves had broken into the container and checked the quality of the fish. They did not steal anything then but on Christmas Eve, they went for it, despite new and much stronger locks.
