CAPTAIN COOK STATUE DEFACED IN POLITICALLY-MOTIVATED ACTION ON ANNIVERSARY OF HIS DEATH
A statue of British coloniser Captain James Cook in Christchurch’s Victoria Square has been twice vandalised in what appears to be politically-motivated action days apart.
In the first incident on Wednesday, which was the anniversary of Cook’s death in Hawaii in 1779, the statue was tagged with red spray paint.
