A man was shot Monday night as protesters in New Mexicos largest city tried to tear down a bronze statue of a Spanish conquistador outside the Albuquerque Museum. The man was taken to a hospital but his condition was not immediately unknown, said Albuquerque police spokesman Gilbert Gallegos. A forklift pried the massive bronze statue of Oate on horseback from a concrete pedestal. Plus, I don't feel like risking my sheriff's deputies or state police to defend it.The Oate statues have been a source of criticism for decades. In 1998, someone sawed the right foot off the statue an incident that weighed in the decision to stash away the statue.
