Al Capone's gravestone was defaced last week - after vandals graffitied the word 'evil' on the notorious mobster's resting place in bright red letters.
The defaced grave was discovered at around 1pm on November 23 at the Mount Carmel Catholic Cemetery in the Hillside suburb of Chicago, where the entire Capone family was buried.
