President Donald Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was destroyed again early Wednesday (July 25th) morning. According to ABC7, witnesses say a man pulled a pickaxe out of his guitar case around 3 a.m. and completely obliterated the star.
The vandalism suspect turned himself into Beverly Hills police around 4:30 a.m. Police did not release his name or his motive for destroying the star.

This is not the first time Trump's star has been vandalized. It was damaged in 2016 before Trump was elected president. The vandal was identified as Jamie Otis, who posed as a construction worker when he took a pickaxe to the star. He planned to steal the star so he could auction it off to raise money to cover the legal expenses of women who accused Trump of sexual assault.
