Watch: Naked Hillary Clinton Statue Sparks Fight in NYC

Just when you thought the presidential race couldn't get any uglier.

An obscene statue of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton that popped up in Manhattan's Financial District outraged some commuters Tuesday morning and sparked a physical altercation between some female passersby and supporters of the protest artwork.

Commuters exiting the Bowling Green station in downtown Manhattan Tuesday were greeted by a larger than life nude statue of Hillary Clinton. The statue showed the Democratic nominee with cloven feet and a Wall Street banker's head nestled between her arm and bare breast.

The statue, which was placed by the Museum of the American Indian infuriated a female museum employee.

"To put something up like this in front of my work place...I shouldn't have to see this," the employee told the New York Daily News, fighting back tears as she gestured toward the crude figure.

A video published by the NYDN shows the museum employee (who would only give her name as "Nancy") in a scuffle with 27-year-old Anthony Scioli, the artist who erected the statue. Nancy, who was sitting on the statue to prevent Scioli from putting it back upright, received some assistance from a woman in a hijab, who stomped her foot on the statue's face.

Scioli, who never received a permit to put up the statue, was ordered by the city's counterterrorism unit to take the artwork down.

The political protest piece is a copycat version of Naked Trump statues that popped up across the country in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Chicago and Miami.
