In January, Ben Kaplan of the National Post telephoned me to discuss a few thefts of artwork from restaurants in Toronto ("Paint Misbehavin'". Three months later, we have reports from Ontario that artwork has been stolen from a Toronto gallery and that a suspect has been arrested.
Ogdon Wagner Gallery had a "smash and grab" on April 7 where three paintings with a total value of $73,000 were allegedly stolen by two men captured on video by a surveillance camera "Man charged in Yorkville art theft," Madeline White, Staff Reporter for The Star). One suspect has not been apprehended.
None of the paintings have been recovered.
