A VIDEO has emerged of a brazen hooded 'Banksy-style' graffiti artist spraying Worcester News-themed art on a city wall in broad daylight.
The footage shows a hooded man with a high-vis yellow tabard, a stencil, spray cans and a road sign walking across City Walls Road before he sets to work on his latest creation.

The Birmingham-based artist, known as Disney, who says 'haters goin to hate' on his Instagram account, shakes his can and gets to work creating the street art
At one stage a pedestrian walks by, the artist's spray cans perched on top of a litter bin.
As previously reported, the street artist 'Disney' has created a new piece featuring a Worcester Newspaper on City Walls Road, near Vivid Ink.
The paper has a front page of "Brum 'Banksy' Fools The Experts" and a back page which reads "Come On You Warriors".
A spokesperson for Worcester City Council said: “Worcester City Council will remove graffiti in public areas, with priority given to any that is rude and offensive.
"When graffiti appears on private property we will ask the owner to remove it, although we can also do the work for a fee.
“We also work with young people in the city, to try to reduce the amount of graffiti that appears.”
The artist recently made headlines when his artwork appeared on the side of the old town hall in Droitwich
A video shared on the artist's Instagram, which has 23,000 followers, showed Disney using a stencil to create the piece.
The black-and-red artwork has been turning heads in the town and shows a child watching a television screen that says “Don’t Think”.
Banksy is an anonymous artist whose work pops up around the world - with many pieces in Bristol.

Copycat pieces often pop up around the country in Banksy's signature style and Disney’s artwork has frequently been compared to the legendary street artist.
In November last year, he painted a mural outside Kidderminster Railway Station.
The work depicted a homeless soldier with a sign asking for help.
Disney posted an image of the mural with an article about soldiers being left homeless and suffering from PTSD after military service.
Then in December, a piece appeared on the side of Fightden Boxing Gym just down the road from Crane nightclub where footballer Cody Fisher was stabbed on Boxing Day.
