Authorities paint over 'Virgin Mary' stain

Authorities in Chicago painted over a yellow and white stain on a concrete wall of an expressway underpass that some believed was an image of the Virgin Mary after it was defaced, police said today. A man was arrested for the alleged vandalism.

Chicago police arrested Victor Gonzalez, 37, early today for allegedly writing with black shoe polish the words “Big Lie” over the image, police spokesman David Banks said.
