A suspect has been charged in a recent defacing of a mural of President Barack Obama near a popular midtown restaurant. Michael Dale Kroetsch, 58, was charged Friday with felony criminal mischief in the 339th State District Court. He was not in custody late Friday afternoon, Houston Police Department spokesman John Cannon said. The charge against Kroetsch stems from an incident in the early hours of Jan. 28, in which someone defaced the larger-than-life mural with paint. Surveillance video of that incident helped lead police to file charges against Kroetsch, Cannon said. It was the second act of vandalism against the mural, which is on a building at Alabama and Travis, across the street from The Breakfast Klub.
