Thief robs caricature artist but leaves his portrait behind
by David Pescovitz from on (#4WRA3)
Earlier this month at the Festival of Lights event in Riverside, California, a gentleman requested that a caricature artist paint his portrait. Once the drawing was finished, the subject snatched the artist's bag of earnings containing around $500. He left his portrait behind. From KTLA:
"Do you recognize this caricature? And no, we are not kidding," police said in a Facebook post sharing the drawing. "This caricature is of the suspect, but of course, has exaggerated characteristics and features."
