Seven individuals were arrested and another seven received federal citations after an attack on the newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C. Surveillance footage captured perpetrators slashing the pool’s liner, sides, and coating, damaging fencing, and throwing debris into the water. Police reports filed by the Metropolitan Police Department detail the vandalism and subsequent arrests. The White House announced that nanobubble ozone technology has been used to neutralize algae and that repair work on the damaged areas is underway. The Reflecting Pool is expected to be restored before the United States’ 250th anniversary celebrations. Officials are monitoring the progress closely.
