A bronze statue of Christopher Columbus in Yonkers, New York, was found beheaded Wednesday, per NBC. Police found the head of the statue nearby. This incident comes days after protestors vandalized a monument to Columbus in Baltimore.

• Statues of Columbus, who spearheaded violence against Native Americans, are among the monuments around the country that have come under scrutiny as racist symbols after the violence in Charlottesville.
• New York Mayor Bill de Blasio is currently reviewing a statue of the explorer at Columbus Circle as part of a larger look into racist monuments in the city.
