Thieves Strike Again!
Thieves have stolen five pictures, including a lithograph by Picasso, from the home of a private collector in southern France, police sources say.
The owner was beaten up during the robbery at his Marseille home.
The value of the stolen works has not yet been made public.
The theft came a day after paintings worth just under 100m euros (£86m; $123m) by Picasso, Matisse and other major artists were taken from a museum in Paris.
