LOS ANGELES: A man with an axe destroyed Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Wednesday in a video protest over sexual misconduct allegations dogging the Republican presidential candidate. The man told a local news agency he had originally intended to remove the entire star from the sidewalk on Hollywood Boulevard. This is not the first time Trump’s Walk of Fame star has been targeted. Liliana Preciado, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Police Department, told AFP the vandal had used both a pickaxe and sledgehammer on the star. Walk of Fame stars are worth around $30,000, meaning anyone found to have destroyed one may find themself facing a felony charge.
