Banksy Thiefs Arrested (London)
- ksaj 3y agoGood to the point of being famous street art is for the people. Not those two guys. I hope they are treated appropriately, because that one guy might be recognized infedinitely.
- jevoten 3y agoYou'd think such a subversive, underground, anti-establishment artist wouldn't get much police protection. You'd think vandalizing a traffic sign might even be treated as a crime itself. Yet this low-level theft of a graffiti'd sign resulted in two arrests in just two days, while the police are told to ignore shoplifting, car crime, and criminal damage [1]. Strange priorities.

- ggm 3y agoAh, that famous movie "as thick as thiefs" Is thieves not part of the US lexicon? (The abc news, in Australia, did not write this headline)
