Vandals have destroyed a small memorial less than a day after it was erected in memory of Michael Brown.
The Black Caucus of the American Library Association dedicated the memorial to Brown on Saturday and by Sunday morning the vandals had already struck. The memorial was located along a walking trail in January-Wabash park in Ferguson and consisted of a sapling with a small stone with Brown’s name on it. The tree was cut in half and they stone has been reported as missing.
Brown was a young black teenager who was shot and killed by a white Ferguson police offer. His untimely death and the grand jury’s decision not to indict the officer sparked a national outrage that led to many protest nationwide.
Ferguson police say that they have no suspects or any idea of who could have committed the crime.
