Alleged Cat Graffiti Artist Arrested ~ Los Angeles

Thanks to quick thinking and investigative work by the LAPD (sarcasm) the 'dangerous' person allegedly behind the cat graffiti on LA freeways has been arrested.  Forget about gang violence, domestic violence, celebrities getting off the hook, an increase in robberies and shootings and Banksy and Shepard Fairey getting the pass; whoever is putting up these cute cats is much more of a threat and needed to be taken down.

The alleged suspect has been charged with doing $15,000 worth of damage, is being held in lieu of $50,000 bail and if convicted is looking at six years and four months along with a suspended driver's license.

At least now the streets are safe. (more sarcasm)
