PORTLAND, Maine -- Police are on the lookout for a prickly piece of art. Officials said Tuesday a porcupine sculpture recently was stolen from Portland International Jetport. It's one of 10 animal sculptures that are part of a work called "Glimpse" by artist Wendy Klemperer. The metal animals are the first thing travelers see when arriving at the airport. The stolen porcupine is nearly 3 feet long and is made from steel and repurposed nails. A police report has been filed.
