Crosswalk paint job not appreciated, Calif. man arrested

(CBS/AP) VALLEJO, Calif. - Anthony Cardenas, a 52-year-old northern California man, is facing vandalism charges after authorities say he painted a crosswalk on a street, allegedly telling officials it was needed.

Cardenas was arrested Thursday morning, May 30, in Vallejo and booked into the Solano County Jail on suspicion of felony vandalism. Solano County Sheriff's Lt. Brad DeWall says workers spotted Cardenas committing the vandalism (i.e. painting) at a city intersection.

The intersection already has three crosswalks.

DeWall says Cardenas also painted lines through those.

State transportation workers painted over Cardenas' paint job later in the day.

Cardenas remained behind bars Friday on $15,000 bail.
