New York City police issued a notice on October 3 local time saying that the memorial statue of George Freud in Union Square in the center of Manhattan, New York, was damaged.
According to police descriptions, a video at the scene of the incident showed an unidentified man throwing paint on the statue at 10 a.m. local time on October 3 and then fleeing.
The panelists who currently installed the statue have cleaned up the paint, and police did not release a video of the statue being damaged.
It is reported that this is not the first time that a memorial statue of George Freud has been destroyed. The statue, which was once located on Flatbush Street in Brooklyn, New York City, was painted black on June 26 of this year and marked with the logo of the "white supremacist" organization. Local residents and a brother of Freud then moved the statue to Union Square in central Manhattan, New York, in July. (CCTV reporter Yin Yue Xu Xiao)
