guy Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Quote Private security at Rome's Colosseum on Monday caught a tourist carving his first and last initials onto a pillar of the 2, 000-year-old structure, CNN reported. Italy's Carabinieri police told CNN that the Colosseum's security team identified the tourist as a 32-year-old man visiting from Ireland. The tourist, whose name has not yet been released, used a metal point to carve his initials about 2 inches high onto a pillar on the Colosseum's first floor. The Carabinieri police told CNN that the visitor is accused of damaging a historical and artistic landmark. In Italy, damaging a historical or artistic landmark is a crime that could result in up to one year in prison or a minimum fine of $2, 400 (€2, 065). I say, "Throw him to the lions!"
