Man in his 20s arrested on suspicion of theft and criminal damage after removal of installation in south London.
UK police have arrested a man suspected of stealing a Banksy artwork hours after its installation on a London street corner.
The man in his 20s was arrested on suspicion of theft and criminal damage on Saturday, London’s Metropolitan Police said, following the removal of the installation consisting of a stop sign adorned with military drones.
“This incident is currently being investigated by officers,” a police spokesperson said.
“Anyone who may have information about the incident or the whereabouts of the sign is asked to call police.”
The suspect’s arrest came after a video emerged showing a man with bolt cutters climbing on a bicycle with the help of another man to remove the artwork.
