bad news, everyone!!; backdated to morning

This just in - there appears to have been a break in at the Museum of Modern Art. Bart Clinton is at the scene.

[the feed cuts to dashingly handsome news anchor Bart Clinton!! playing backdrop is the entrance to MOMA, swarmed with police doing various law enforcement type things. Bart looks suitably grim for the occasion.]

Thank you, Sandra. [a beat.] In a normal city, a museum would be considered a less than hectic place to spend your evening. Our city isn't like most, but the Museum of Modern Art has managed to stand tall through riots, plagues, bombings, and all manner of threats.

[he starts walking, showcasing more activity and even more going on inside the building itself.]

But early Monday morning a daring robbery was carried out, leaving at least one museum personnel with minor injuries and one notable missing piece: The Persistence of Memory, a work by Salvador Dali.

[a picture of the piece flashes briefly on screen.]

The police, amid scandal of their own, are currently reporting no suspects - time will only tell if the thief is apprehended, and the museum restored to its former glory.

[annnnd it cuts to interviews with the head of security and the aforementioned guard, with an ice pack on the back of his head.]
