Vandalism at the Veterans Memorial; Blotter-San Diego Union-Tribune

Lawn at the monument at Jolla vandalized

A section of the lawn from the National Mount Soldad Veterans Memorial in La Jolla was vandalized at the weekend, and the group that runs the monument says that it is trying to repair the damages “as soon as possible”.

The grass near the Memorial was once led on the night of March 14, leaving deep tire routes, according to Neil Oconnell, the executive director of the Mount Soledad Memorial Association. One docent discovered the damage on the morning of March 15.

“This is a terrible act of disrespect and very sad to see this type of vandalism on the lawn in the beautiful park at the national memorial of Mount Soledad,” O’Connell said.

He added that the memorial, from 6905 to Jolla Scenic Drive South, had about 3,000 visitors at the weekend, which we “delighted to have. … But the beautiful lawn is a mess. “

A police report was submitted and reports were registered on vandalism on social networks. O’Connell said he hopes that “people could speak and condemn this terrible act of disrespect and vandalism.”

The association also looks at the security photo materials for any useful information, O’Connell said.
