Banksy Shut Down by NYPD

Another day, another dispute with the NYPD. The NYPD are showing the true extent of their warning to Banksy. The artist had no piece to display today, rather he posted "Today's art has been cancelled due to police activity". NYPD even cracked down on the actor in Banksy's Ronald McDonald shoe shine piece on Monday. They threatened to ticket the actor for disorderly conduct because he was blocking sidewalk traffic and a crowd had gathered. Eyewitnesses share that five cop cars and ten officiers showed up to question the actor. Our guess is that cops were pressuring the actor to give up Banksy and/or his contacts. Clearly they are trying to make an example of Banksy. Will this be the end of his NYC residency? Sorry NYPD, but this shit is bananas.
