News summary

Taylor Pelton, 28, has been arrested and charged with criminal mischief and criminal mischief as a hate crime for her involvement in the vandalization of the homes of Brooklyn Museum Director Anne Pasternak and museum President Kimberly Trueblood on June 12. The vandalism included red paint splattered on the properties, banners with slogans like 'White-Supremacist Zionist' and 'Funds Genocide', and inverted red triangles—symbols associated with Hamas.

Pelton was arraigned and released under court supervision, while authorities continue to investigate potential links to other similar acts of vandalism across the city.
