A San Antonio chalk artist said he may file a lawsuit after being wrongfully arrested for creating nonpermanent artwork on a public sidewalk in Leon Valley earlier this month. Lakey Hinson was using chalk to draw designs on a public sidewalk in front of the Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union on the afternoon of May 15 when two Leon Valley Police Department officers approached, telling him to stop, according to the Express-News. Officers Jorge Breton, a field training officer with more than 10 years’ law enforcement experience, and Alan Gonzalez, a trainee, were responding to an anonymous tip that someone was defacing public property, the daily reports.
