Larry Fraser, 47, and James Love, 53, have been charged with burglary after the Banksy artwork "Girl with Balloon" was stolen from a London art gallery.
"A Banksy painting entitled 'Girl with Balloon' was the only item stolen. This has now been recovered and will be returned to the gallery," police said in a statement. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
Surveillance camera footage showed a masked man smashing a glass door before dashing in and taking the picture from a wall. The artwork -- which is one of several versions of a stenciled image of a child reaching for a heart-shaped red balloon – is valued in court documents at $355,000, The Associated Press reports.
