Blair Whitten
FARGO (KFGO KVRR) – A Barnesville, Minn. woman is accused of vandalizing a statue of Jesus outside St. Mary’s Cathedral in downtown Fargo.
The City prosecutor’s office says 28-year-old Blair Whitten has been charged with one count of misdemeanor criminal mischief.
The face of the marble statue at 604 Broadway was spray-painted black. The vandalism happened in the early morning hours of April 17. The statue has been located outside the main entrance to St. Mary’s since 2018. It came from a church that closed in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
Whitten was arrested in May after she allegedly disrupted the funeral of an ex-boyfriend in Fargo.
Witnesses said she drove over several graves and nearly hit two people during the service. No one was injured.
