Police say 42-year-old Brendan Pemberton heavily damaged the 8-foot, 4-inch hollow plaster statue on Thursday after storming out of the clerk's office following a dispute over a $165 ticket.
Pemberton allegedly took his frustration out on the biblical lawmaker with a uniformed state trooper standing about 15 feet away.
Trooper James Ellis told the Telegram & Gazette that Pemberton appeared "very agitated, very upset."
He is scheduled to be arraigned Friday on a variety of charges, including malicious destruction of property.

Well he will really be pissed when he finds out how much he will be fined for the statue. :crazy:
