WASHINGTON – The World War II Memorial has been vandalized with spray paint, the National Park Service said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Sometime before 10 a.m. Monday, someone sprayed graffiti on the base of the North Dakota column with dark paint. Officials said they were not certain what the graffiti said.<\/p>\n

The Park Service said in a statement that “monument preservation experts have already made an initial treatment of the graffiti, using a light paint stripper to remove a significant portion of the damage.”<\/p>\n

“Applications will continue until the marking is no longer detectable,” the statement said.<\/p>\n

Park Service spokesman Mike Litterst said the cleanup would be much like that done in 2013 on the Lincoln Memorial after someone splashed green paint on its base.<\/p>\n

That cleanup took several weeks of multiple treatments.<\/p>\n

“That’s probably what we’re up against here,” he said.<\/p>\n

U.S. Park Police are investigating. Anyone with information can call (202) 610-7500.<\/p>\n
