Banksy: No Art “Due To Police Activity”

For day #23 of Banksy’s “Better Out Than In,” there is no new artwork, according to Banksy’s website.

The “police activity” that Banksy refers to took place Monday when, according to Gothamist! police forced Banksy to take his Ronald McDonald shoe shine piece off the street.

Below this line of text is what appears today on Banksy’s website.
