Southeastern Massachusetts man accused of stealing two Black Lives Matter banners from church

First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church

A Massachusetts man will be charged in connection with larceny and destruction of church property after Black Lives Matter banners were stolen on two separate occasions from the First Parish Church on Tremont Street in Duxbury. 

According to Chief Michael Carbone, at approximately 11:00 a.m. Thursday, Members of the Church notified Duxbury Police that a Black Lives Matter banner had been stolen from the lawn of the Church overnight. Duxbury Officers and Detectives were able to identify a suspect in the theft and the possible location of the banner. 

Using video and other evidence, officers developed probable cause to obtain a search warrant for a home on Starboard Way in Duxbury. Evidence obtained from the search and other sources indicates that, on two occasions, 31-year-old Zachary Brousseau of Starboard Way, Duxbury stole banners from the lawn of the Church. 

In January, the Church reported the first banner theft. During Thursday’s search, a badly damaged banner, believed to be from the January incident, was recovered. 

Charges of Destruction of Church Property and Larceny will be filed against Brousseau in Plymouth District Court.

      Let’s make racist assumptions. I hope that last word wasn’t over your head because people who think like you are usually not too bright.

    We may not like what BLM is about and their President and all, but fly whatever you want. I won’t fly my Trump flag due to worrisome behavior from the BLMers out there, so……..to each their own but take your risks as you see fit .

    He should receive the appropriate punishment. Sternly told not to steal signs promoting a terrorist organization trying to overthrow our country and then taken out to dinner.

    It would be great if BLM really believed BLM. I can produce for viewing purposes videos showing heinous behavior between Black brethren and sisters that proves otherwise.
