Wilmington police tell news outlets that someone threw orange paint onto the statues sometime Thursday morning.
Surveillance video released by police shows the woman running up to a statue at around 3:15 a.m., dousing it with a bucket of paint and running away.
Two years ago, the same statues were vandalized following a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Workers spent part of the day cleaning the paint off the two statues. Police released surveillance video of a woman they say is responsible for the vandalism.
