AI Summary:
New South Wales police said it received reports of a vandalised statue in Sydney’s Eastern Beaches at Randwick on Friday morning. Officers had seized “a number of items” at the scene. The statute has recently undergone restoration work after a similar incident in February last year. Cook arrived in Sydney Cove in 1770, opening up the continent now known as Australia to colonisation by the British Crown.
