Trump State Park sign is stolen, NY man arrested

An act of vandalism at Donald J. Trump State Park in a New York City suburb has led to an arrest.

(FOX)- Police said the entrance sign to the park in Westchester County was vandalized and stolen March 22. The sign was replaced.

A local news website TAPinto Yorktown reports that Ronald Atzmon, 32, of Carmel, N.Y., was charged Friday with criminal mischief, a felony, and petty larceny, a misdemeanor, in connection with the theft.

The arrest came a day after New York State Park Police shared images from surveillance cameras showing a man inside a Ford Transit passenger van stealing the sign, the Westchester Journal News reported Saturday.

Police installed the cameras after the sign was stolen in January in a previous act of vandalism.

Trump Park consists of 436 acres of undeveloped land in Westchester and another county, TAPinto reported April 2. Trump reportedly wanted to build a golf course but couldn’t secure permits from government officials. He donated the land to the state in 2006.
