Former Disney actress Bridget Irene Shergalis and two others were arrested in Merrimack, New Hampshire for vandalizing an office belonging to Elbit Systems.
The trio, part of a group protesting the company, faces charges including riot and criminal mischief.
The incident involved protestors blocking the building’s driveway, shouting pro-Palestinian slogans, splashing it with red paint, and causing damage.

Irene Shergalis, Sophie Marika Ross, and Calla Mairead Walsh were the three females arrested.
Elbit Systems condemned the violent criminal behavior.
Jonah Steinberg from the Anti-Defamation League said, “This is outright violence. It’s criminality. It is malicious targeting of property and of people.”
“In this time of Hamas terrorism against Israel, it is extremely concerning if Hamas is setting the example for people who consider themselves activists on this side of the sea,” added the non-profit’s director.
Walsh posted on X that she was under “an extreme level of political repression from the state” and sought “all the support I can get,” from her followers.
“History will absolve us,” promised Walsh.
Republican strategist Garrett Ventry warned, “This is what happens when limousine liberals who grow up with a silver spoon in their mouth are beholden to TikTok trends rather than having facts on situations.”
“The continuation of the false equivalence between Israel and Palestine shows just a lack of understanding of history and morals,” cautioned the political analyst.
“Elbit America employs thousands of Americans who are dedicated to the mission of creating innovative solutions that protect and save lives,” Elbit Systems wrote in a statement.
“We support the rights of protesters to peacefully express their views. However, what we experienced today was violent criminal behavior as evidenced by the arrests made by local law enforcement,” concluded the vandalized company.
