Thieves Apprehended and Paintings Returned in Sao Paulo Museum Theft

A quick end to a story we were reporting on at the end of last month: the two paintings stolen from the Sao Paulo Museum of Art have been found and their thieves have been apprehended, likely leading to some sighs of relief by both the museum officials and the one, often-asleep, hard of hearing elderly security guard they employ. Although “the mastermind behind the theft” has yet to be caught, which we’re thinking is a little bit of an oxymoron considering the ease and clumsiness of this whole ordeal, we’re thinking that everyone’s just happy that it’s all over and everything can get back to normal for at least another week before the museum is robbed again.
