Police have charged a 38-year-old man with criminal damage after graffiti turned up on the Sir Winston Churchill statue in Parliament, square. Kaspar San Giorgio, who has no fixed address, was arrested shortly after 4 a.m. on Friday and taken into custody right away. The statue stands as a key landmark near Parliament, honoring the World War II leader, and this kind of vandalism draws quick attention from authorities. He faced charges on Saturday morning and has been held in custody since then. San Giorgio is set to appear at Highbury Corner Magistrate's Court today with the case moving forward as police wrap up their initial probe.
