Police looking for people they say assaulted officer, vandalized monuments during Israeli PM’s DC visit

U.S. Park Police are looking for people who they said assaulted an officer and vandalized the area around Union Station during protests last week when the Israeli prime minister was visiting D.C.

Police said some in the crowd set fires, defaced monuments and scuffled with police, according to 海角社区app reporters who were at the scene.

Park Police posted flyers on social media that include pictures of protesters they’re looking for, including one accused of assault on a police officer and four accused of vandalizing federal property.

海角社区app鈥檚 Mike Murillo reported from the scene that protesters were defacing monuments and statues near Columbus Circle with red and green paint 鈥 colors on the Palestinian flag. Demonstrators were painting messages such as 鈥淔ree Gaza鈥 and 鈥淗amas is comin鈥 on the monuments.

Anyone who recognizes the people in USPP’s bulletins should contact Park Police’s Intelligence and Counterterrorism Unit via the anonymous tip line at 202-379-4877 or via email.
