ZURICH, Switzerland — Swiss media reported Monday that paintings stolen in one of Europe’s largest art thefts may have been discovered in a parking lot in front of a Zurich mental hospital.
A Zurich police spokeswoman said a suspicious vehicle had been found at the Psychiatric University Clinic. She declined to say whether it was connected with the Feb. 10 robbery from a nearby Zurich museum. The stolen works by Cezanne, Degas, van Gogh and Monet are worth more than $163 million.
But TV station TeleZuri quoted an unidentified witness as saying that the car contained three paintings bearing the name of the museum.
