Shepard Fairey arrested

I've been told that artist Shepard Fairey was arrested last night in Boston, where he was for the opening of a show at Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art.

Apparently the arrest was because of warrants due to graffiti tagging of private property.

Clearly the Boston police must know that they just added a huge new publicity boost to Fairey and the ICA show.

Update: Boston Globe says arrest was due to the fact that the "Police said they had warrants on Fairey from last month after he allegedly tagged property in Boston with graffitti based on his Andre the Giant street art campaign."
