Musk failed to get the necessary permits to change Twitter’s building signage to X, and the police shut it down just in time for “er” to remain.

The awesome Taylor Lorenz reports this on Mastadon. Highly recommend to follow her if you like these updates about what's going on.

The way I heard it elsewhere (Google should help), Twitter/Elon actually had the necessary and correct permits (for using heavy machinery on the street/sidewalk and redirecting traffic around it).
Unfortunately, that detail was not correctly communicated to building security, who called the police believing there was no permit.
By the time the misunderstanding could be cleared up, the workers & heavy machinery had... "vacated premises" already, leaving the work in its half-finished state.
Do you have a source on that?
Ah, here it is.
