The Haymarket Memorial statue is bombed once more by Radical left organisation the Weather Underground in Haymarket Square, Chicago, Illinois, United States. The statue was rebuilt again and Mayor Richard J. Daley posted a 24‑hour police guard at the statue. This guard cost $67.440 per year. In 1972 it was moved to the lobby of the Central Police Headquarters and in 1976 to the enclosed courtyard of the Chicago police academy.
