If you can’t arrest Banksy, arrest his balloons. The artist’s last piece in his New York residency ‘Better Out Than In’, valued at $200,000 – $300,000, has been taken into custody.

This went down after three astute gentlefolk tried to liberate the piece from its lodging in Long Island and were spotted by the five-O.  They then claimed it, deflated it, and stored it away, not under the category of art, but of balloons, meaning it mightn’t be auctioned and instead won’t see the light of day until it shows up on the bedroom wall of some police chief’s daughter who just learnt to stencil.
