Someone drove a car up on the lawn of the state Capitol building Thursday night and smashed into a controversial Ten Commandments monument, breaking the stone slab into several pieces, state officials said.

The person who did it fled and has not been found, Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokesman George Brown said Friday.

This wasn’t a case of a car taking a wrong turn, but a purposeful act, said John Estus, spokesman for the Oklahoma Office of Management and Enterprise Services. Whoever did it repositioned some ramp equipment that happened to be outside the building and used it to get access to the area near the monument.

It’s not clear if the monument is repairable, Estus said.

The monument was donated by a state representative amid opposition that placement of a religious artifact near the Capitol was not proper.
