The silhouette of "The Man in Black," is painted on the side of the Kingsland, Arkansas water tower.

But someone shot the painting of Johnny Cash on the tower, just to watch it leak.

It was still leaking the town's water Tuesday. The gunshot hit the image of the iconic country singer in the crotch.

The water tower in Kingsland, a small town of 400 about an hour south of Little Rock, features a mural of country music legend Johnny Cash, and that is what the sharpshooter hit, according to the Cleveland County Herald.

The shooter fired the shot May 11, and repairs continued this week. The town had just spent $300,000 on the water tower.

Cash was born in 1932 in Kingsland.

The Cleveland County, Arkansas Sheriff's Department is investigating the case of vandalism.

Anyone with information can call the sheriff at 870-325-6222.
