According to an SAPD preliminary report, officers met with a 77-year-old man who showed them that the historical piece had sustained damage.
“It appeared at the base that someone or something broke the historical marker,” the report said.
The historical marker has since been removed from the area. However, it was titled “The SNCC Legacy Project.”
The “SNCC” is an acronym for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, which was a group in the Civil Rights Movement.
