According to The Press and Journal, the incident on Thursday evening was sparked by the proprietor posting a video to social media that appeared to show her celebrating the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Jacki Pickett of Jaki Fish and Chip Shops, in Muir of Ord, shared a video showing her popping a bottle of Champagne after learning of the British monarch’s death.

While the original video was subsequently deleted from Facebook, another version was shared to TikTok by the account Inverness_City.

In the video, which can be watched here, a woman purported to be Pickett can be seen holding a bottle of Champagne along with a placard that says: “Lizard Liz is dead London Bridge has fallen.”

The woman can be seen spraying the contents of the bottle in front of a building bearing the name Jaki Fish and Chip Shops.

She can be heard repeating the words written on the placard with the video ending with someone on the video describing the situation as “absolutely brilliant.”

The version of the clip shared by Inverness_City drew an angry response online.

“Hope she gets karma,” one person wrote with another commenting: “Never getting a fish and chips there again.” A third called it “awful disrespect” with others branding it “disgusting” and a “disgrace.”

Another reposted version of the video also surfaced on Twitter, where it has garnered close to 250,000 views with the account posting the clip commenting: “A hope your business fails after that.”

The video seemingly sparked anger among locals, too, with the Ross-shire Journal reporting that a crowd of people gathered outside the fish and chip shop after the video’s being posted online.

According to the news outlet, some of the restaurant’s windows were broken with The Press and Journal also reporting that police ultimately had to step in and close the venue.

Footage has since emerged on Twitter allegedly showing Pickett being escorted from the diner by police to a chorus of angry shouts from those outside the premises.

A heavy police presence remained in place around the shop overnight.

In a statement published in the Ross-Shire Journal, a Police Scotland spokesperson confirmed that “no further police action” would be taken over the incident.

“Shortly after 8.30pm on Thursday, September 8 officers attended at a business in the Seaforth Road area of Muir of Ord following a report of a large crowd gathered in the area,” they said.

“Officers remained at the scene to ensure the safety of all present and the group subsequently dispersed peacefully. No further police action has been required.”

Newsweek has contacted Pickett for comment.
