DOVER, Del. (AP) - A $3,000 reward is being offered for assistance in solving the vandalism of a memorial dedicated to Delaware State Police troopers who died in the line of duty, according to authorities.
The Delaware State Troopers Association was set to offer the money to anyone who could provide information leading to the arrest and conviction of suspects responsible for the graffiti, State Police said in a statement Thursday.
The stone memorial, which sits on the grounds of state police headquarters in Dover, was spray painted with the words “Black Lives Matter” sometime between late Monday and early Tuesday, the agency said.
The vandalism happened just days after a memorial on Delaware’s Legislative Mall that honors law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty was damaged with an ax.
