Unknown pranksters dubbed the 'googly eye bandits' have struck again, with Adelaide's founding father becoming the latest public face to attract their attention at a site aptly called Light's Vision.
Giant "googly eyes" have continued to appear around Adelaide, most recently this morning on a statue of city planner Colonel William Light as he looks over the city from a site aptly called Light's Vision.
"There he [Colonel Light] is with his scroll in his left hand pointing out with his arm raised to the right over the top of Adelaide Oval into the city centre, just looking at the beautiful site he created for the city of Adelaide and, lo and behold, he's got googly eyes," he said.
The statue of Colonel Light has previously been the subject of light-hearted disfigurement, including when a yo-yo was attached to his outstretched finger.
