Police: Man drives through Kentucky memorial cross display

Surveillance footage from nearby, she said, showed a late 1970s model Ford Thunderbird driving on a sidewalk.

The vehicle description, along with Facebook posts from concerned community members, led police to Anthony Burrus, a 27-year-old Henderson resident.

Burrus has been charged with criminal mischief in the first degree and leaving the scene of an accident. Online jail records do not list an attorney for him.

Some of the crosses were embedded in the tires of his vehicle, she said. Police don't know if he deliberately drove over the plastic crosses, she said.

"He said he didn't do it. He admitted to driving the vehicle in the morning but would not state that he drove through the park. But the evidence is in his car tires."

An estimated 160 crosses need to be repaired or replaced.

"We're hoping to have all of them replaced by Monday," said Richmond, who has relatives honored by crosses in the park. "But we don't know right now."

I thought it was another wacked out islamotart myself. However, I got the wrong image. The correct image is given in this report:

What is this world coming to? The desecration of the Viet Nam wall in Los Angeles, another veterans-related memorial was reported damaged in Henderson, Kentucky. Parents need to start teaching respect for the past, other peoples work and property.

He doesn’t look intelligent enough to do it as as some kind of political statement.
