 A young man in the United States faces five years in prison after breaking into a museum in the city of Dallas, USA and smashing antiquities totaling about 5 million USD.


According to AP, this young man is Brian Hernandez, 21 years old. On the evening of June 1, Hernandez broke into the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, smashed glass display cases with a chair and broke three precious antiques with a total value of more than $ 5 million. One of the smashed artifacts was a jar made in 450 BC.


The museum's security staff then discovered and restrained Hernandez, then handed over to the police. At the investigative agency, Hernandez testified that, because he was angry with his girlfriend, he decided to break into the museum to wreak havoc. Hernandez was charged with willful destruction of property and could face up to five years in prison.


According to the initial assessment of the police, this is a single incident, not an act of stealing antiques at the museum. The museum management is continuing to assess the damage following the incident.


Three days ago, an incident of vandalism targeting precious works of art also occurred at the Louvre museum in Paris, France. A man disguises himself as an old woman in a wheelchair and throws a cake at Da Vinci's Mona Lisa. The picture is still intact, but the cake is scattered all over the protective glass.
