Brazilian Police Exercise Some Degree of Competence

Brazil is not known for its high-tech security systems or competent police force, but everyone deserves a lucky break once in a while. The BBC reports that two precious pieces of art work, including a Picasso, have been recovered by Brazilian authorities.

What excellent police work lead to the discovery? The paintings were found leaning up against in building in Sao Paulo. Two suspects have been brought in for questioning who allegedly used only a crowbar and a hydraulic carjack to break into the museum.
