1,400 African art pieces auction halted after owner Sam Njunuri files for bankruptcy. Njunuri, who was ordered to sell the collection to pay $989,000 in damages, filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy the night before the sale. The art pieces, which were once in the possession of Harris County Precinct 1 Commissioner Rodney Ellis, were set to be auctioned in Houston.
