Hollywood residents woke up on New year’s day to find the iconic Hollywood sign altered to read “Hollyweed” in an apparent New Year’s Day prank. Surveillance cameras recorded a male suspect dressed in all black at 3 a.m. vandalizing the sign, said Lt. Guy Juneau of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Security Services Division. The unidentified vandal scaled Mount Lee, made his way over a fence and then climbed onto each of the landmark’s “O” letters, the lieutenant said. He then draped those letters with black tarps so they each appeared as a lowercase “e.” Singer Miley Cyrus liked it and wrote:
I knew 2017 was going to be MY year!!!!!!!!!
The suspect remained at large hours after the incident. If caught, he would face a misdemeanor trespassing charge, according to the LAPD.
Park rangers removed the tarps and restored the proper text’s visibility by 11:15 a.m Sunday morning.
