The estimated value of damages is between $3,000 and $10,000 due to the composition of the stone used during the construction of the facade, police said.

Meanwhile, Philly Voice reports Duncan Lloyd, the other man see in the video, will keep his job as an assistant city solicitor in the city's law department and not face charges.

In the video, Lloyd is only seen taking photos of the vandalism once it was done. He was not seen committing vandalism.

The outlet reports Lloyd has been on a two-week unpaid leave since he turned himself in after the Philadelphia Police released the security footage, where Lloyd and allegedly Brown are seen at the store.

The city's GOP called for Lloyd's firing in a blistering statement shortly after it was announced Lloyd was one of the two men in the video.

Lloyd will undergo 40 hours of community service with the city’s Community Life Improvement Program
specifically the Graffiti Abatement Team, the Voice reports.
