Man Arrested Vandalizing George Floyd Statute

Union Square, Manhattan (77 WABC) – NYPD arrested a man who allegedly vandalized a George Floyd statute in Union Square Park in early October.

Authorities had released a video of an unidentified man throwing paint on the statute. The statute was also vandalized earlier in June when the statute was first unveiled in Brooklyn in commemoration of Juneteenth.

The Hate Crimes Task Force has been investigating this incident and urges anyone with information to come forward. Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York Governor Kathy Hochul have also condemned these acts of vandalism.
