..."Here's what we know about the vandalism
The incident targeted a 10-foot-tall bronze statue of Floyd, who was murdered by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin last May.
The bust was one of three statues unveiled in Union Square Park on Sept. 30 as part of the installation (the others depict Breonna Taylor and Rep. John Lewis).
Just days later, police released video footage of a person on a skateboard throwing gray paint on the statue's face and base. They said the incident happened around 10:15 a.m. and asked members of the public to get in touch with any information.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul called it "reprensible" and directed the Hate Crimes Task Force to help investigate."...

Make an example out of him. I'm sure he won't get any more work as an actor.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel It's a shame that some people need to vandalize what they disagree with.
