Banksy has no brakes, paints piranha fish on a police booth in London VIDEO  - 1

British artist Banksy has confirmed that he is the author of another street painting in London. He published a post on Instagram, from which it is clear that he painted piranhas on one of the posts of the London police.

The facility is located on Ludgate Hill - close to the old criminal court known as the "Old Bailey" and St. Paul's Cathedral. Banksy has transformed it into an aquarium, the BBC reports, quoted by FOCUS.

This makes it his seventh work in a week. He previously painted monkeys, elephants, a goat, a wolf, a pelican and a cat.

At the beginning of the day, many people rushed to take a picture of the work. Barriers were later erected to restrict access to the police station.

This work differs from Banksy's previous works he has done this week in that it is a detailed painting that appears to have been created with translucent spray paint.

City of London police said they were aware of "criminal damage" of the police station and is in connection with the City of London Corporation, which owns it.
