Nathaniel Smith, 36, resident of Brooklyn, was arrested for the act of vandalism, said New York Police Department to News Digital.
The vandal was filmed with aerosol paint on the plate in the Manhattan building before kneeling on the floor and holding a small banner that said: “Finished game”, according to the video of the incident.
The authorities escorted him away from the scene.
“This is his country. This is our country. This is our planet … it cannot be ruined without comments. They are ruining the planet for profit,” he heard screaming while being expelled from the building.

Jackson caused controversy in 2023 about his comments on the NBA players who protested in the bubble when the league was restarted during the coronavirus pandemic.
He said the NBA was “attending” to a certain audience, which deactivated fans who wanted to keep politics out of sports.
Jackson was asked about his comments about the last episode of “Gimme The Hot Sauce” by Stacey King, saying that critics had not been able to understand the humor behind them.
“I don’t think people have humor … the names are on the back of the players who were in the bubble because if you apply to defend, challenge and go to the hoop, and use those nicknames that were in the names, it look funny,” Jackson said at that time. “That is just what I was bringing to the children. Visually, this is a bit humorous.”
