Banksy tribute to Paris terror attack victims stolen

An artwork painted by Banksy as a tribute to the victims of the 2015 Paris terror attacks has been stolen from the Bataclan theatre.

The celebrated street artist had stenciled a veiled female figure in a mournful pose onto a black emergency door of the Bataclan theatre, where 90 people had died.  

According to reports, a group of thieves used electric tools to cut away the door and load it into a van.

"We are today filled with a deep sense of indignation," the Bataclan tweeted.
