In a press release from the police department, it says, "Detectives were able to obtain video of the crime, in which a vehicle is seen intentionally 'burning out' and applying tire tread marks across the length of the mural."

Brandon Bochat, 20 Santa Cruz, and Hagan Warner, 19 Boulder Creek, have been charged with felony vandalism and conspiracy to commit a felony. Police say both Bochat and Warner took turns driving the vehicle during the vandalism.

Felony vandalism! Worthless Santa Cruz police chief finally solved a crime.

Peeling out isn’t a felony unless it’s on sacred road.

[Artcore]

Isn’t it just glorious watching our Country implode!

[ronnie raygun]

If they burned an American flag this is ok

[artichokegrower]

Two suspects need to declare tha they are Cuban Freedom Fighters protesting BLM supporting the Communist regime cracking down on dissent

[Nateman]

Should paint a red hammer and sickle on it instead. Or totally black out the V.

[Captain Jack Aubrey]

I thought burnouts were protected by the 1st Amendment.

Positraction.

[americas.best.days...]

Maybe these detectives could find out who planted pipe bombs near the capitol in January?

[Mouton]

I guess one can only deface approved murals for such.

“creates a higher level of anxiety for many citizens, including our Black community.”

Oh the humanity....nevermind the national crisis of black on black crime.

These two kids should be lauded and congratulated. My (unscientific) prediction is that there will be more acts like this. And they are just in time

[Nateman]

Another thought criminal !

[LuxAerterna]

Felony vandalism for driving over letters painted on the street. Meanwhile homicide is skyrocketing, stores are shutting down because of endemic shoplifting and drug addicts and street derelicts are everywhere. I guess some crimes are more equal than others.

[V_TWIN]

But this is A-OK. 👌

[Mouton]

Yes that is an approved graffiti target!

[EandH Dad]

Felony possession of horsepower?

[artichokegrower]

Should have declared it a sideshow. Culturally protected burnouts in California

[Sirius Lee]

How does one “vandalize” graffiti?

‘burning out’ and applying tire tread marks across the length of the mural.” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Excellent Civil Disobedience.

Screw these Marxist Racists at BLM.
