At no time did officers with the Durham Police Department or deputies with the Durham County Sheriff’s Office intervene as activists brought a ladder up to the statue and used a rope to pull it down, according to multiple media reports.
No one was arrested Monday, however, a day later, Durham County Sheriff Mike Andrews announced investigators were working to identify the protesters and planned to bring criminal charges against them.
“We decided that restraint and public safety would be our priority,” Andrews said in a statement posted on his agency's website. “As the Sheriff, I am not blind to the offensive conduct of some demonstrators nor will I ignore their criminal conduct.”

Its all white kids, unbelievable
All those police should be fired for dereliction of duty. The world is falling apart fast.
Great the police who watched them topple the statue are now on the hunt for the perps. Great job.
All you cop haters you finally got what you want. Enjoy the large riots and crowds bc the police are not taking ANY chances of getting arrested themselves. I don't blame them.
Would happen that way if they were Black or Latino.
Paid by bernie and SOROS.
Now one symbolic arrest. One. Just one.
Why do I believe this Police Chief conspired to allow this destruction. Why do I wonder will the charges later be removed or reduced to a fine or community service. Why do I doubt she will be left with a criminal record.
ISIS can identify with these groups as they are also famous for destroying statues, artwork and other historical monuments they disagree with.
