BOSTON (WHDH) - Police are asking for the public’s help to identify two people in connection with a vandalized Black Lives Matter art installation in Boston Thursday.
A man allegedly painted over the letters of the installation at a MassDOT fence near Lincoln Street at 9:20 p.m., according to police. Footage shows a woman was with him when the vandalism took place.
Justin Pomerleau, who owns the nearby store Vivant Vintage, said some neighbors quickly came out to clean up the installation, but said it’s been damaged multiple times.
“It’s terrible, it seems like it’s getting defaced faster and faster now,” Pomerleau said. “It’s frustrating, the community clearly supports the message and there are just individuals with a lot of hate in their heart.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 617-343-4256.
