May Sun stood on Wilshire Boulevard in Koreatown on Tuesday morning, looking through the fence at the memorial she and another artist designed to honor Robert F. Kennedy near the site of his 1968 assassination. Graffiti smeared the monument. Scattered trash included a potato chip bag, a smashed beer bottle and a sneaker. Weeds poked up from neglected garden beds and dozens of orange sandbags sat on ledges and columns, for no apparent reason.

True Brading, 26, admitted to assault on a police officer and will spend 30 days in jail and 120 days on house arrest.

A mural of Trent Alexander-Arnold has been vandalised as the Real Madrid right-back prepares to face former club Liverpool on Tuesday. Some fans booed the Liverpool academy product in May after he announced he would leave his hometown club when his contract expired in June. The 27-year-old joined Real Madrid, who were then handed an away game with Liverpool in the league phase of this season's Champions League. The mural of the England defender was unveiled near Anfield after Liverpool became European champions in 2019, and was also vandalised earlier this year, with the word 'Rat' daubed on it.

A number of Allianz offices across Europe and Asia were vandalised in the past 24 hours in a coordinated wave of actions that campaigners say coincided with the renewal of Allianz's alleged insurance contract with the Israeli defence firm Elbit Systems and the anniversary of the 1917 Balfour Declaration.

When asked backstage what Waymo is doing to change the perception of its vehicles, Mawakana pointed to the company's push to put local artists' designs on some cars as part of a broader effort to "make the fleet more a part of the community." But while Waymo often pushes back on surveillance requests, she said the company has to "continue to work with first responders to help us address this challenge" of vandalism.

The Paris criminal court gave two-year sentences to Georgi Filipov and Kiril Milushev, described as the perpetrators, and four years and three years respectively to Nikolay Ivanov and Mircho Angelov, considered the operation's masterminds. Angelov is still at large. All four were also banned from entering French territory for life. The trial was the first of its kind in France, one of a series of similar crimes suspected of having been orchestrated by a foreign power with the aim to destabilise.

Wikipedia is one of those rare digital miracles that feels like it live up to the vast promise of the web: a vast online encyclopedia, written and maintained by millions of volunteers across the world, in arguably the most extraordinary single repository of knowledge in human history. But of course, because any unverified user can edit Wikipedia, it's often become subject to vandalism.

Harrison Grant Randall, 40, was charged in March with six felony counts of defacing property. He was accused of tagging the Teslas with stickers of Elon Musk, the automaker's billionaire CEO who worked closely with President Donald Trump earlier this year.

VEHICLE ACCIDENT: 2:51 p.m. at Los Gatos-Saratoga Road and North Santa Cruz Avenue. In the morning of Oct. 11, a gold Toyota sedan hit a black Audi Q5. The parties exchanged info, but the man driving the sedan had an insurance card that was issued to another car, not the car involved in the crash. The Audi driver said she has neck pain, but the other driver did not report to his insurance. The woman's insurance company told her to file a police report.

Downtown Willow Glen, a small strip of shops along Lincoln Avenue, has experienced about 30 reports of vandalism and theft since June, according to San Jose Police Department data. Some of those incidents included more serious burglaries. The data includes two incidents at Icicles and Ume Tea early this month, or a break-in at Sushi Arashi last month. Those numbers pale in comparison to other areas like Santa Clara Street in downtown San Jose, with about 70 reports of break-ins and thefts between North Almaden Boulevard and South Eighth Street in the same time frame.

The bronze statue of Margaret Thatcher by the sculptor Douglas Jennings has a rating of 2.8 out of five on Google Maps. Although curiously, none of the reviewers seems to have overly preoccupied themselves with the quality of the craftsmanship or the fidelity of the likeness. One of the most important PMs this country ever had, writes one. It's a public toilet but there's nowhere to wash your hands, writes another.

Winston Peters posted to social media on Monday evening saying a disgusting coward had smashed a window in his Auckland home and left a sign on the door. Glass was shattered all over our dog. He also left a sign on the front door. I wasn't home. But my partner and guest were. This is truly gutless, Peters said. Peters told media on Tuesday the note said welcome to the real world.

When tech bro evangelists sell the world on the productivity accelerating power of the technological terrors they've constructed - despite their sad devotion to the large-language hype train not helping them conjure up measurable productivity gains - they hype cancer cures and a future without junior associates. Instead, they've built a Robo-Diary for dumb criminals to write, "will I go to jail for smashing up these cars?" It's a slightly slicker Magic 8-Ball and all it cost is a 267% increase in electricity prices.

In a video provided by a pro-Palestine activist group calling itself Palestine Action Éire, two people can be seen at the front of the building holding an Irish tricolour flag with the words 'IDF suppliers out of neutral Ireland' emblazoned across it. The two individuals proceed to start smashing windows of the front entrance before the person filming picks up a cannister of red paint which is used to spray the building front. The words 'Drop Elbit' are also spraypainted onto a sign nearby.
