The 18ct toilet, reportedly worth more than £1m, is an art piece called America and is the work of Italian conceptual artist Maurizio Cattelan.


Police have confirmed the toilet has been stolen and are investigating.

The loo remains missing but a 66-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the theft.

Watch the toilet flush
Detective Inspector Jess Milne said: "The piece of art that has been stolen is a high value toilet made out of gold that was on display at the palace.

"Due to the toilet being plumbed in to the building, this has caused significant damage and flooding.

"The artwork has not been recovered at this time but we are conducting a thorough investigation to find it and bring those responsible to justice."
