Man grabs Salvador Dali painting off wall and walks out of San Francisco art gallery.
A suspect who carried a $20,000 Salvador Dali painting out of a San Francisco art gallery while it was open and the director was present is being sought by police.
The painting, titled"Surrealistic Bullfight: Burning Giraffe," was stolen Sunday from Dennis Rae Fine Art, the gallery's co-owner David Schach told NBC News on Tuesday. It is worth an estimated $20,000, Schach said. According to the San Francisco Police Department, the piece was taken sometime between 4:40 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.
Security footage showed a man carrying a large frame on Geary Boulevard toward Union Square, Schach said."It happened quickly," he said."The gallery director was speaking with other customers at the time of the theft."
