SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Black Lives Matter street mural painted in northern Utah was defaced and partially covered with gray paint, days after it was painted by local artists. Park City Mayor Andy Beerman said in a statement Wednesday that people must be educated and held accountable to overcome bias and racism. Authorities say the word “Black” and the Black Power fist, which was used as the dot in the letter I, was covered with gray paint sometime Tuesday. The words “Lives Matter” remained. Several residents have expressed their disappointment. Artist Alijay Fuimano painted the mural on July Fourth and said on Instagram that he is on standby to repaint it.
