Days after a two-tonne, seven-metre-high bronze statue of a famous  Ukrainian 
poet was reported stolen from a park in Oakville, Ont., its head has  turned 
up at a nearby smelter.
 
The statue of Taras Shevchenko — a 19th-century artist and poet credited  
with establishing the modern Ukrainian literary language — was discovered  
missing on the weekend by two visitors to a 16-acre memorial park in North  
Oakville. Police believe it could have been stolen anytime between Dec. 15-31.
