Sheridan Statue at NY State Capitol Vandalized

WARNING: GRAPHIC LANGUAGE


More graffiti has been found in the Capital Region on Tuesday.

In Albany, the Sheridan statue outside the State Capitol has been spray painted in red with words against colonization. It also states there should be no borders or nations.  

On Monday, a Colonie police officer discovered multiple anti-Christopher Columbus messages on and around the old water treatment plant on River Road. 

No word if the two cases of vandalism are related, although they are not visually similar.

According to Wikipedia, Philip Sheridan served General Grant in the Indian wars of the Great Plains. He was born in Albany in 1831.
