A man tried to break into the Dallas Museum of Biblical Art this month, smashing several sculptures in a brazen midday attack.
Police said the man, identified as 34-year-old Elvis Santos, damaged pieces outside the museum near North Park Center, then attempted to break in around 1 p.m. Jan. 5, a Monday, when the museum was closed.
Santos was arrested and remains in the Dallas County Jail, jail records show, facing charges of felony criminal mischief and resisting arrest, a misdemeanor. Bond is set at $11,000.
A motive was not immediately clear, nor was a cost estimate for damages, although Dallas police said it exceeded $300,000.
