This is the best summary I could come up with:
Nearly three weeks after a bronze statue of Jackie Robinson was stolen from a youth league baseball facility in Wichita, Kansas, and later found destroyed, an arrest was announced in the case Tuesday.
“The investigation has not revealed any evidence indicating that this was a hate-motivated crime,” said Wichita Police Lt. Aaron Moses during a news conference.
Police declined to provide more details on Alderete’s alleged involvement in the theft until the case is presented in court.
District Attorney’s Office spokesperson Dan Dillon told CNN that Alderete was scheduled to appear in court at 2:30 p.m. CT Tuesday and would be assigned a public defender at that time.
Wichita Police say they have surveillance video showing at least three people present when the statue was stolen on January 25.
League 42, a non-profit that provides low-cost baseball registration for children, had raised $50,000 for the life-sized statue at its field, according to CNN affiliate KLBY.
