AC/DC man's gravestone vandalised

A brass plaque has been stolen from AC/DC frontman Bon Scott's grave in Fremantle on what would have been his sixtieth birthday.

A brass plaque has been stolen from the gravestone of late AC/DC frontman Bon Scott, on what would have been the singer's sixtieth birthday. Scott died back in 1980, of course, at the age of 33 in London; his heritage-listed grave is in the Fremantle Cemetery in Australia.

Doug Thorncroft, of the Western Australia Bon Scott Fan Club, told Melbourne broadsheet The Age: "It's very disappointing; particularly at this very special time of the year.Some insignificant individual has decided to sabotage it, and steal this plaque. They're possibly sitting at home now feeling terrible, which I hope they are."
