Jackie Robinson statue is clear of hateful graffiti
The Jackie Robinson and Pee Wee Reese statue outside of MCU Park that was vandalized with hateful graffiti yesterday has been cleaned.
The Parks Department’s Monuments and Conservation Crew power-washed and sand-blasted the base of the statue in order to remove the vile graffiti.
The re-stenciling of the inscription on the base will be continued tomorrow, weather permitting. In addition, barricades surrounding the statue are down
