BART police on Thursday confirmed the recent arrest of a vandalism suspect who did over a half a million dollars worth of damage by allegedly smashing the new glass canopies at the San Francisco Market Street station entrances.

Since early this month, 29 large glass panels were damaged at the entrances to Embarcadero, Montgomery, and Powell Street stations, BART officials said. Many of the destroyed panels were part of new canopies that are being built over the entrances to downtown San Francisco stations.

According to the release issued by the BART Police Department, the vandalism spree targeted three downtown San Francisco stations. 28-year-old San Francisco resident Saqueo Delcidmontenegro was spotted aboard a BART train Tuesday evening by a BART Police Transit Ambassador, who recognized him from an informational flyer.
