With some creatively hung tarpaulins, California vandals tried to convert the famous Hollywood sign in Los Angeles into the word ‘Hollyboob’ on Monday.
Los Angeles police captain Steve Lurie confirmed the incident in a tweet Monday night.
Six people were arrested for the stunt, which was reportedly intended to raise breast cancer awareness, an LAPD captain told NBC Los Angeles.
Los Angeles Police Department spokesmen did not immediately respond to requests from NBC News for comment.
Los Angeles landmarks are precious to us @LAPDHollywood and this was really not cool (not to mention the terrain is quite steep and dangerous), “Lurie wrote.
According to NBC Los Angeles, the stunt resulted in an LAPD helicopter flight to locate the suspects, who were quoted and later released.
The board was not damaged, LAPD Sgt. Leonard Calderon said.
