Police arrest suspect in vandalism of Boston Holocaust memorial

By Brandon Carter - 08/14/17 08:17 PM EDT

A person has been arrested after the city of Boston’s Holocaust memorial was vandalized on Monday night.
WHDH reports that Boston police arrested a suspect after witnesses claimed to see a person throw a rock at the memorial, which shattered a pane of glass.

WHDH reports it’s the second time the memorial has been vandalized in 2017. A man was arrested in June for smashing another pane of glass on the memorial.

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh (D) responded to the vandalism Monday night, praising the Boston police for a “quick arrest” and vowing that the city of Boston would “stand up against hate.”
