The SAFE LA Task Force is looking for more information on the person that vandalized a police memorial during last month's anti-police brutality protests.

On July 25, a man was caught on camera vandalizing the memorial for the fallen. 

The man was described as being 5 feet 9 inches tall and about 180 pounds.

Police have since released photos of the vandalized memorial for fallen Los Angeles police officers at the Police Headquarters Facility. 

The man spray-painted a large red “X” on a glass case containing the badges of fallen LAPD officers. “FTP” was also spray-painted across the walls nearby. 

Those who provide credible information to SAFE LA Task Force, leading to his identification and arrest, could be eligible for a reward of up to $10,000.
