George Floyd protests: Getaway driver busted in St. Pat's vandalism, cops say; suspects still at large
MIDTOWN (WABC) -- A man who police described as the getaway driver in last week's vandalism of St. Patrick's Cathedral has been arrested, but the two women caught on camera tagging the building are still at large.
The man, Yadir S. Avila Rosas, 26, of Queens, was arrested and charged with criminal mischief and making graffiti.
It's believed the incident happened late in the day last Saturday as protests against George Floyd's death took place across the city.
One of the stairs was spray-painted with George Floyd's name and "BLM" on the wall.
