Raleigh, N.C. – It wasn’t a political statement about ongoing construction on Hillsborough Street.
It was just some art that was meant to make people smile.

Watch the video:
Raleigh, N.C. – Raleigh police arrested a North Carolina State University student last week who was accused of creating a “monster” out of construction barrels and placing it on the side of the road. Authorities charged Joseph Carnevale with larceny for taking materials from a construction site at a roundabout project to create the monster.
