The Pentlands moved in in June 2020.
Then this week, as Black Lives Matter protesters gathered outside, vandals broke at least one window and a light fixture and tossed garbage at the home, and police ushered the family to a safe location.
The Pentlands have not responded to repeated Fox News requests for comment. The behavior and conduct of Mr. Pentland is not condoned by The Summit Community and in-fact strongly condemned by the Board, and members of this community, Summit’s HOA Board President Justin Martin said in a statement on the association s website. He does not represent this multi-cultural and multi-racial community.
U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Jonathan Pentland has also been arrested and charged.
