Protesters marched down Plymouth Ave. N to the Minneapolis 4th Precinct. Neighbors and community members gathered at the scene where a man was shot and wounded by a Minneapolis Police officer early Sunday, Nov. 15, 2015. The shooting outraged some community members and prompted a protest by the group Black Lives Matter Minneapolis, after some witnesses said the man was handcuffed when he was shot. Police have said their preliminary investigation shows the man was not handcuffed, but the investigation is ongoing. (Mark Vancleave/Star Tribune via AP)
BOISE, Idaho (AP) Boise State University’s president says a homecoming float dedicated to the Black Lives Matter movement has been vandalized.
Bob Kustra released a statement early Sunday morning condemning both the vandals and the attempt to silence constitutionally protected free speech.
Kustra added that the school’s security team is investigating the issue, but he will also support students if they choose to report the vandalism to the police.
Details about the extent of the damage and when it occurred have not been released.
A spokesman for the university did not immediately return requests for comment.
