In a now viral video posted to social media, Concord resident Manette Sharick confronts a man who she says had been repeatedly erasing the word "Black" from the chalk "Black Lives Matter" message written in front of her house.

"I was upset because it wasn't the first time that it happened. I caught him when he did it for the fourth time," Sharick told ABC7. She says she finally spotted the man, who identifies himself as "Jim" in the video, pouring bottles of water on the chalk using video surveillance.


In the over eight-minute-long video, she asks Jim to leave as he stops on his bicycle to once again pour water on the sidewalk chalk.

"...don’t deface the sidewalks of my neighborhood,” he says in the video.

“I’m gonna continue to write in front of my f—ing house," replies Sharick, telling him to mind his business.
