<i> Associated Press</i>
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. —
A portrait of President Clinton that was ultimately destined for his presidential library is missing from the state Capitol rotunda.
Secretary of State Sharon Priest said the portrait was in its spot Thursday night but gone Friday morning. “We are obviously not pleased about this,” Priest told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. “If it has been stolen and if we find who did it, that person will be prosecuted to the fullest extent.”
The White House was notified, as was the National Archives, which owns the work.
