Reward offered for stolen works
From Bloomberg News
The city of Oslo is offering a reward of up to $310,000 for information leading to the return of the stolen Edvard Munch masterpieces “The Scream” and “Madonna,” which have been missing for nine months.
The decision to offer a reward was taken by the city in cooperation with the police, said Morten Hojem Ervik, a police attorney, in an interview. The police previously advised against offering a reward to avoid encouraging similar thefts.
