Vandal dumps red paint on Black Lives Matter mural in front of Trump Tower

A man was recorded throwing red paint onto the Black Lives Matter mural that was recently painted on the street in front Trump Tower on Monday.

In brief footage of the incident captured early Monday, the man, whose face was covered, can be seen dumping a can of red paint over part of the mural, days after it was completed. The man, who also doesn't appear to be wearing gloves, then sets the can down on the street and flees.

However, by late afternoon, the relatively small part of the mural that had been vandalized had been repainted.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) shared a photo showing street crews applying touch-ups to the mural late Monday.

1. I've never seen 5th Avenue with that little traffic.

Figured it'd be repainted quite quickly.

2. Grab the can

he left his fingerprints on it when he dumped the paint.
Should be easy to ID him.
