Bianca Jagger loses $343k ring

Posted August 28, 2008 10:00:00

Bianca Jagger reportedly lost a 200,000 euro ($343,000) ring over the weekend in Salzburg, Austria, while attending an annual music festival.

The former wife of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger said she noticed the ring was missing as she left a hotel in a taxi.

According to the daily Salzburger Nachrichten, Jagger insists the precious platinum-and-aquamarine ring, which she had designed herself, was lost in the street.

"Ms Jagger expressly said she had lost the ring and that this wasn't a theft," Karl-Heinz Wochermayr from the Salzburg Police told the newspaper.
