The New York City Police Department confirmed that it is investigating the incident. It also tweeted surveillance footage of the three men walking near the monument and asked for the public's assistance to identify them.
A group of three men allegedly damaged multiple rainbow Pride flags on display at New York City’s Stonewall National Monument over the weekend, in what police are investigating as a possible hate crime.
New York City Councilmember Erik Bottcher, who is gay and whose district includes Greenwich Village, also confirmed the vandalism, posting images of the broken rainbow flags on Twitter on Saturday. The Stonewall National Monument, where the vandalism took place, is across the street from the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar that was the site of a June 1969 uprising that’s widely considered to be a turning point in the modern gay rights movement. The bar and the nearby Christopher Park became a national monument and the first LGBTQ space to hold landmark status in New York City in 2016.
