Police said Austin Mikel Clay, 25, who was on felony probation at the time, allegedly climbed a piece of artwork at the Four Ladies of Hollywood Gazebo on Sunday and used a hacksaw to remove the statue, which remains missing. Oldfield said it may be broken into pieces.

The theft was apparently caught on security footage that showed a man climbing down the gazebo, entering the nearby Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with an alleged accomplice and looking inside the backpack with another two people in the lobby, KNBC reported.
