Vandals destroyed more than 150 rainbow flags at the Stonewall National Monument in New York City during Pride Month, police said Saturday.
Authorities said someone had hopped the fence and taken down 160 flags lining Christopher Park in New York’s West Village, part of the first-ever monument to the LGBTQ equality movement.
The vandalism occurred between Thursday evening and Friday morning, the New York Police Department said in the statement.
