As passersby in London admired the latest street art from the world-renowned anonymous artist Banksy, one man was hatching a plan.
The piece, known as the Howling Wolf, featured the animal stenciled in black paint on a white satellite dish, which served as a modern-day stand-in for a full moon. A few minutes later, the plotter and two associates used a ladder to scale the building and detach the satellite. Videos show one of the men running down the street of London’s Peckham neighborhood hauling off his prize.
