Vandalism at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial?
September 11, 2007 - 11:30am
WASHINGTON - U.S. Park Police are investigating a possible case of vandalism at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial on the National Mall.
National Park Service rangers noticed what they call a light, oily substance on the memorial's wall panels and paving stones on Saturday. The substance was spread over an area of 50 to 60 feet.
U.S. Park Police are still investigating what the substance is, and if it was left on purpose.
"We have not reached a conclusion as it whether this was intentional or whether it is accidental. It is simply too premature to say," National Park Service spokesman Bill Line says.
Preservation staff are working to remove the substance and say they believe they can do so without causing any permanent damage.
