The Walk of Fame is a State registered Historic landmark! Disrespectful,” she wrote.

Martinez later added that the star will cost $3000 to be repaired and it will be done by the Hollywood Historic Trust. “It will cost nearly $3,000 to repair Bob Marley’s star on the Walk of Fame after it was found vandalized this week,” she wrote on Twitter. At the time of this publication, Bob Marley star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was being repaired and will be spanking new by weekend. “Bob Marley Walk of Fame star is being fixed by Star-maker Vince as we speak. Thanks to the Hollywood Historic Trust,” Ana added.

She also revealed that cops are investigating the incident and the perpetrator could be prosecutor. The damage to the star appeared to be made from a heavy object like a sledgehammer.
