Police Arrest Second Suspect In Banksy Artwork Theft
Police have arrested a second suspect following the theft of Banksy artwork in London, authorities announced Sunday.
Admirers of the artwork flooded the scene on Friday just after the artist posted on Instagram about a new piece, depicting military drones on a stop sign in Peckham, London. Witnesses observed two men, who showed up in the furor, use bolt cutters to remove the artwork.
Video posted to social media shows the two men stealing the signs, one of whom stands by holding steady a bike. One man, wearing a red coat, runs off with the sign after cutting it.
