Two people allegedly stole a statue of baseball legend and American civil rights icon Jackie Robinson from a public park in Wichita, Kansas, Thursday morning.

The statue was snatched from McAdams Park.

“I’m frustrated by the actions of those individuals who had the audacity to take the statue of Jackie Robinson from a park where kids and families in our community gather to learn the history of Jackie Robinson, an American icon, and play the game of baseball,” Wichita Police Chief Joe Sullivan said during a news conference Friday. 

“This should upset all of us.”

Robinson died in 1972 at the age of 53, and it’s widely thought the stress he endured throughout his playing days contributed to an early death.
