An artist is calling for his sculpture to be removed from Blackpool seafront because it is decaying.

Liam Curtin claims his piece High Tide Organ has never been properly maintained since it was installed near South Pier in 2002.

U.S. equities were already choppy early Wednesday carrying over from Tuesday evening.
