The giant spinning ice disc in the Presumpscot River in Westbrook that has attracted headlines and watchers from around the globe appears to have been cracked down the middle by a New Jersey man trying to carve a peace sign into it.

Photos shared on social media show the moon-like circle split approximately down the middle, while others appeared to show at least one person climbing onto the ice disc with an ax.

A CBS 13 producer posted that a man who climbed onto the ice disc said he was trying to carve a giant peace sign into the circle.

Christopher Angulo came from New Jersey to chip the giant emblem into the disc, CBS 13’s Dustin Bonk reported.

We are engaged in an international arms race for attention and it causes people to do all kinds of stupid, destructive things.
