DeKALB – A mosaic huskie statue created as part of a large community fundraiser has been taken from outside We Care Pregnancy Clinic.

Northern Illinois University student Lauren Meranda covered a fiberglass dog statue with broken pieces of pottery and china as part of 2008’s Huskies on Parade. The public art project benefited a scholarship fund in honor of the five students who died in the Feb. 14, 2008, shooting at NIU.

Clinic executive director Katie Mehne noticed the statue was missing Friday as she was leaving the clinic at 403 N. Fifth St., DeKalb.
