A man reportedly dressed as a construction worker approached the star with the a pick axe and a sledge hammer, telling reporters on the scene that he intended to remove the star and sell it – donating any money made to women who have accused the Republican candidate for the presidency of sexual assault.

But the star remains at 6801 Hollywood Blvd - with the real estate mogul's name scratched out and a gold plaque stripped from the stone.

One witness said the man “suddenly picked up the sledgehammer and started smashing the bejeezus" out of the potential president's Hollywood star.
