And the Oscar for “worst thief” goes to a man accused of stealing Frances McDormand’s Best Actress Award after the Academy Awards last night.

A Facebook live video appears to show a man bragging about having McDormand’s award that she won for “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.”

“Look it baby. Got this tonight. This is mine. We got it tonight, baby. Governor’s Ball baby.”

The LAPD says a 47-year-old man is being held on $20,000 bail for grand theft. Police say he swiped the award off the actress’ table at the Governor’s Ball after-party.
