Someone defaced the historic building in the French Quarter that houses the Presbytère museum on Jackson Square in New Orleans.
“We have worked hard over the last few years to restore the Presbytère,” Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser said. “It’s a shame that some coward felt the need to deface this historic building in the middle of the night.”

There was red spray paint with pro-Palestine graffiti on the museum.
Nungesser is offering a $5,000 reward of his own money for information that leads to an arrest and conviction.
Crews removed the graffiti.
The building dates back to 1813.
