"Pink Panther" Theft Shocks Mayor of Paris

By Rick Pearcey • May 20, 2010, 10:30 PM

"Bertrand Delanoë, the art-loving Mayor of Paris, had some explaining to do last night," reports the UK Timesonline. "A masked man had just climbed into the Musée d’Art Moderne and helped himself to five masterpieces -- including a Picasso, a Matisse and a Modigliani."

According to the Times, "The Pink Panther-style raid, which netted works insured at €100 million (£85.4 million) was one of the biggest art thefts in decades. Christophe Girard, Mr Delanoë’s Deputy Mayor in charge of Culture, was flummoxed."
