Man arrested for vandalizing African Burial Ground NMon with racist slur

A Bronx man was arrested on Tuesday and charged with defacing the African Burial Ground National Monument in Lower Manhattan three weeks ago with a threatening racist slur.


The man, Ivan Nieves, 57, was charged with vandalism and disorderly conduct but not any hate crime. He was released on bond by a federal magistrate judge pending further proceedings.
