A multimillion dollar collection of Andy Warhol portraits of sports superstars was stolen from a Los Angeles home. Police said the 11 colour screenprints, each 40 inches by 40 inches, were taken from businessman Richard Weisman's home sometime between 2nd and 3rd September.
Ten of the portraits feature famous athletes of the 1970s, including Muhammad Ali, golfer Jack Nicklaus, soccer star Pele, tennis champion Chris Evert and OJ Simpson. A one million US dollar reward was being offered for information leading to the return of the artwork.
