Miami Marlins join efforts to restore defaced Jackie Robinson and Minnie Miñoso mural in Overtown
The Miami Marlins are joining efforts to restore the defaced mural of baseball legends Jackie Robinson and Minnie Miñoso in Miami's Overtown neighborhood, which was marked with racist graffiti last week. City of Miami Chairwoman Christine King announced Wednesday that she along with the Marlins, Urgent, Inc., Omni Community Redevelopment Agency, Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency and other community activists will lead the restoration at Dorsey Park, where community leaders said a 7-year-old boy first discovered the vandalism last Sunday and asked his mother what the words and the Nazi symbols meant. Murals of baseball legends Minnie Miñoso, second from left, and Jackie Robinson, third from left, are covered with plywood after being defaced in Miami's Overtown neighborhood, Thursday, June 5, 2025, in Miami. Lynne Sladky / AP "This vile assault was an attack on our values, history, and community," King said in a statement. "We are actively working with law enforcement and the public to identify the individual(s) responsible for this intolerable act. However, even in the darkest hours, light finds its way to shine. This is a reminder and testament to the strength of our community, coming together to restore peace, beauty, and pride to this neighborhood." Police were investigating the incident but have not made any arrests. City workers have since partially covered the murals of Robinson and Miñoso, an Afro-Cuban player, with wooden boards. The murals are along a fence at Dorsey Park, where Negro League teams once played baseball. The Marlins' home ballpark loanDepot park is just a few miles from the park. "In light of the deeply troubling acts of vandalism at Dorsey Park, the Miami Marlins today proudly stand in solidarity with the City of Miami Chairwoman Christine King, and our local leaders in unequivocally condemning this hateful and racist act," said Marlins owner Bruce Sherman. "Dorsey Park is not only a landmark of historical and cultural significance in South Florida — it is a powerful symbol of resilience, pride, and the enduring contributions of trailblazers to the game of baseball." Robinson broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball when he signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 to become the first Black player. Miñoso became the league's first Afro-Latino player and the first Black player for the Chicago White Sox. The murals have been displayed in the park since 2011 and are a collaboration between artists Kyle Holbrook and Kadir Nelson and various community groups.

Negotiations ongoing in Candie Springer case, hearing postponed 2 weeks
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Negotiations are continuing in the case of a Bakersfield woman who's facing a felony charge in connection with a deadly crash that occurred after she allowed her unlicensed teen son to drive her Dodge Charger. David A. Torres, defense attorney for Candie Springer, said in court Wednesday he submitted a mitigation packet to prosecutors and they need two weeks to review it. Judge John W. Lua set the next hearing for June 25. Springer, who was not present Wednesday, was ordered to appear. A mitigation packet is intended to provide a complete picture of the defendant and can include school and work history, character letters and information on prior minimal or lack of a criminal record. Springer, 47, has no prior cases listed against her in Kern County. She's charged with felony child cruelty and a misdemeanor count of allowing an unlicensed person to operate a motor vehicle. In 2023, Springer let her then-15-year-old son take her car for what she thought would be a quick trip to the market. Jace Springer instead picked up friends, sped on city streets and led police on a chase that ended with him crashing into a tree. A passenger died. Jace Springer accepted a plea agreement in juvenile court. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
