A man was caught on surveillance video last month shattering a lingerie store window before abruptly pulling out a mannequin of former President Barack Obama and throwing it to the ground.
The owner of Romantic Depot, located in New York City's Harlem neighborhood, released the video of the Jan. 26 incident to the New York Daily News.

The suspect was recorded pacing on the sidewalk in front of the shop, before opening up a gate to a construction area and removing a cinderblock, which he threw into the window, shattering it.
After picking up his glove from the ground, the man turned to leave before changing his mind — going back for the body double of the 44th president.

He appeared to grab one of the mannequin's arms before throwing it to the ground and walking off.
The man was stopped by a member of the store's security team before being surrounded by Obama fans, Buzzetti said.

Buzzetti said the suspect "definitely was a Trump supporter who was very angry with Obama's policies, and he kept on repeating it after he was caught that he hated Obama and Obama ruined the country."

“He said, 'That doll was giving me bad looks. I’m tired of him. Obama brought the country down.' He said he walks by the store every day and sees Obama every day and it made him really angry," according to Buzzetti.
