Poster Boy is Caught in Action

Well-known subway artist, Poster Boy, was arrested again on Friday after a cop caught him at the Jefferson Street L train station cutting the heads off of people in an ad. His arrest comes just as he was about to finish his sentence of 210 hours of community service from a previous arrest about one year ago. A spokeswoman for the Brooklyn District Attorney said, “We plan on asking the judge to throw out the plea deal and sentence [him] to jail.”

According to the NY Post’s sources, Poster Boy, “told the cop he should get a break because it was the first time he did it — but admitted he was the infamous Poster Boy after the officer ran his name through a computer.”

The Subway Art Blog has recently spotted other stations along the L in Bushwick with several ads missing heads. These decapitations may have to do with a larger project Poster Boy had in store.
