Bronze Henry Moore Sculpture is stolen in London.

The sculpture, that weighs a hefty two tons, is reported to have been stolen by three men with a crane and a flatbed truck.

The fractured image of a man performing the sexual oral position on a women is said to be worth 5.3 million dollars. Of course everyone says that it is a sculpture of a person reclining. But take a closer look and you can clearly see that it is a women sitting and braceing herself up on her right arm, her torso in a slight twist. The image of a man is at the waist.

I just wonder how these men got away with this theft with security cameras recording the whole thing.
