Two Pablo Picasso ink drawings and six other works of art with a total value of more than $250,000 were stolen from the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco. A security guard discovered the theft from a fourth-floor gallery. Officers had responded to an alarm late Sunday night, but found nothing amiss. Police said there was no sign of forced entry. The stolen works include four pieces by Paul Klee, a 1931 photograph of Joan Crawford taken by Edward Steichen and a photograph by Man Ray.
