Footage of LA Banksy being removed

'On the morning of April 13th, 2010, Ace Gallery owner Doug Christmas organized the removal of a Banksy painting from it's installation location at 410 S. LaBrea Ave. in Los Angeles. This "Banksy" has not been authenticated by the artist and is being sold as an unauthorized gallery artwork. Do NOT support this sale; the work is now considered counterfeit.'

Interestingly enough this news was broken by JetsetGraffiti....

surreal that there's footage, surreal that the person is 'outed' so quickly, apparently on the Gallery's property - so not actually that much anyone can do other than shrug their shoulders and ask did Banksy ask permission in the first place? And if so, did he know this would happen?
