Pittsburgh police on Wednesday released photos of a man suspected of damaging the window of a police tactical support vehicle during May 30 protests in Downtown Pittsburgh.

The man is suspected of throwing a cinder block through the front passenger window of a Tactical Operations Support truck parked at Washington Place and Fifth Avenue just before 5:15 p.m.

The images join others released Tuesday by the Damage Assessment and Accountability Taskforce, showing three people police say were involved in causing damage during the protests. Those photos show a woman who allegedly defaced the Mario Lemieux statue outside of PPG Paints Arena, an alleged looter and and a man alleged to have thrown a projectile at police.

Authorities are asking the public for help identifying the suspects.

Those with information may contact the task force at DAAT@pittsburghpa.gov or 412-323-7800.
