The hooded guys were recorded eliminating the meal in Peckham, southern Greater london, in wide day light prior to nonchalantly walking off down the street with it. A passerby called Tom Kellow recorded the robbery throughout his lunchbreak. "They had a step ladder," he told the BBC. "There was one guy in the roofing and also the other 2 were enjoying the step ladder. They saw me filming as well as it got a little bit tetchy. One provided me a kick in the side as well as one more made an effort to throw my phone on the roofing. The good news is it hit a plant and went back down again." Banksy has repainted a number of new murals around London over the final handful of days, sparking a giddy selfie frenzy as individuals hurry to view the black stenciled art work. They include a hill goat, a pair of elephants, some monkeys ... and also a dropped, solitary wolf. Where will Banksy's following process of criminal damage be actually?
