"Banana bandits scored a sweet steal worth a whopping $6.2 million, nabbing the yellow, crescent-shaped centerpiece of “Comedian,” a masterpiece by Italian visual artist Maurizio Cattelan, from the Centre Pompidou-Metz museum in France this weekend.

The fruity theft comes just one year after a gallery visitor was discovered eating the banana that previously starred in the masterwork."
