THE grave of Hollywood star Michael Clarke Duncan has been vandalised in an apparent racial attack, say the Green Mile star’s family.
TMZ reports that a family friend stopped by Forest Lawn Cemetery in the Hollywood Hills to deliver flowers to the spot where Clarke Duncan was buried in 2012, only to see a figure of a cartoonish black face had been attached to the centre of his tomb.
The friend believes the black face is an image of “Sambo” – a character that has long been considered an offensive and racist depiction of a black person.
Clarke Duncan’s family were shocked and has contacted the LAPD.
Police told them the incident could be considered a hate crime.
