PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — The St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office arrested a man Friday in connection with vandalizing political signs.
Rafael Eduardo Soto, 46, faces a charge of criminal mischief in the case.
In a video posted to the agency's Facebook page, a man can be seen stomping on campaign signs.
"We're not going to tolerate anybody damaging anyone's political signs, especially in the climate that we're in," St. Lucie County Sheriff Keith Pearson said in the Facebook post.
Last week, Port St. Lucie Police Chief Richard Del Toro was victim of a violent political act when his sign was spray painted with a threatening image. Del Toro is currently campaigning for St. Lucie County Sheriff.
