About
Art Theft in Paris
A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre.
After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings and made it
safely to his van.
However, he was captured only two blocks away when
his van ran out of gas.
When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an
obvious error, he replied, "Monsieur, zat is the reason I stole ze paintings.
I had no Monet to buy Degas to make ze Van Gogh."
