Police release CCTV footage in search for person who vandalised Marcus Rashford mural

Police have said it would 'exhaust all opportunities' to find the person who vandalised the mural

Greater Manchester Police has released CCTV footage of a man they are keen to speak to in connection with the vandalism and defacing of the Marcus Rashford mural in Manchester. The Akse P-19-created mural in Withington is dedicated to the Manchester United and England forward in acknowledgement of his ongoing work to eliminate child food poverty and racial inequality. Following England’s loss to Italy in the final of Euro 2020 on Sunday July 11, the mural was despicably defaced. The mural was later covered with thousands of message of support for the 23-year-old until Akse P-19 repainted his monochrome illustration. The force has said that it would “exhaust all opportunities” to find the person who vandalised the mural. https://twitter.com/LBC/status/1447883413176950792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1447883413176950792%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fthemanc.com%2Fnews%2Fpolice-release-cctv-footage-in-hunt-for-the-marcus-rashford-mural-vandal%2F Earlier today (October 12), CCTV footage was released that shows a hooded man acting suspiciously whilst frequently looking up and down Copson Street at around 11:40pm.
