American tourist has been arrested for allegedly smashing sculptures in the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
Images shared by Israeli police show the two ancient Roman statues, dating from the 2nd Century, lying broken on the floor of the museum.
Police say the man damaged the statues because he said they were "against the Torah", Judaism's most important text.
His lawyer has denied that he had acted out of religious fanaticism, according to the AP news agency.
The museum says staff alerted the police after seeing a man damaging the two statues.
