Two men, Larry Fraser (47) and James Love (53), are alleged to have stolen the painting "Girl with Balloon" from the Grove Gallery in west London on Sunday night. Surveillance footage shows a masked man smashing a glass door and taking the painting from a wall. The suspects appeared in court on Thursday, where it was reported that the painting had been recovered. The painting is valued at £270,000 ($355,000). The suspects have been charged with non-residential burglary.
