Rat mural removed in Oceanside



The rat mural
On February 25, a large rat showed up on Bull Taco in Oceanside and caused much speculation that it was done by the famous street artist Banksy. Banksy was rumored to be in Southern California for the Oscars that weekend.

The British artist confirmed after some days that it wasn't his work.

The North County Times reports the owner of the shop decided he didn't want the mural because "If the artwork was unwanted, it would be considered graffiti and would need to be removed".

And finally, city workers removed it.

I think that at this moment, the owner of the shop doesn't have need the rat mural yet, by now he earned a lot of money with it and he can leave for an exotic vacation.
