Perhaps not, if you consider the man's previous convictions: May 14, 1998: Caught mooning statue of Beetle Bailey. October 2, 1996: Police called when perp confessed to "mentally undressing" a statue of Blondie located in town square. February 27, 1990: Juvenile arrested in backyard for copyright infringement. Suspect caught creating "disturbing" snowmen after having allegedly read a collection of Calvin and Hobbes comic strips. One-time incident, or lifelong trend into comic-related violence? You decide.

I feel like, if this story was fictional, and put into comic strip form, it could win some awards. What would Garfield, in his comic strip, say if he came across a beheaded statue of himself? Comedy!
