A rat spotted in an upmarket luggage shop’s window was bagged yesterday.

The owners of Voila on Hamilton’s Front Street said the rodent was caught overnight and destroyed.

The rat was earlier filmed as it crawled over bags and wallets and the clip was circulated on social media.

Maritza Sequeros, the general sales manager of the Calypso group, which runs Voila, confirmed: “He’s gone.”

She said the rat had been caught in a trap and was removed.

Ms Sequeros added: “The saga is finished.”
