Via Philly Com:

The assistant city solicitor captured on camera with a second man, who is seen vandalizing a Chestnut Hill grocery store, will not be charged and will keep his job, officials said Saturday.

Duncan Lloyd, 32, was identified in surveillance footage that captured Lloyd and a second man walking along Germantown Avenue in Chestnut Hill on Nov. 25. In the footage, Lloyd is seen wearing a blue blazer and holding a glass of wine while appearing to film or take photos of a second man, who spray-paints “F- Trump” on the wall of a newly opened Fresh Market.

Craig Straw, first deputy city solicitor of the Philadelphia Law Department, said he learned Saturday that Lloyd would not be charged. He said Lloyd, who has been on a two-week leave without pay since the incident, will keep his job and complete 40 hours of community service.

“Earlier today, the District Attorney’s Office informed us that the Police Department did not submit a warrant to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office requesting Duncan Lloyd be charged with any crime. Therefore, no criminal charges have been brought against Mr. Lloyd for the incident,” Straw said in a statement.

“Even though Mr. Lloyd’s actions did not amount to criminal conduct, the Law Department feels that his actions were inappropriate and warrant additional disciplinary action beyond the suspension without pay.
