Picasso Paintings Stolen in Switzerland

ZURICH—Two Picasso paintings worth about $4.5 million total have been stolen from a museum in eastern Switzerland, Agence France-Presse reports. The thieves set off a security alarm Wednesday evening as they left with the oil paintings Tete de Cheval from 1962 and Verre et pichet from 1944, but other details surrounding the theft are still fuzzy. The museum, located in Pfaeffikon, is offering an unspecified award for the safe return of the works.
