It’s been more than a week since a number of headstones in the veterans’ section of a Fredericton cemetery were vandalized and still no leads on who was behind it.
It’s been more than a week since a number of headstones in the veterans’ section of a Fredericton cemetery were vandalized and still no leads on who was behind it.
More than 20 headstones have been defaced, all within the Royal Canadian Legion’s section of the Forest Hill Cemetery.
The president of the Fredericton Legion, Don Swain, says he’s outraged by the graffiti.
"I know the families are really choked up about it,” Swain said.
“As well, as we are… and it's just, like I say, it's just a disgrace.”
Some of the headstones are least 30 years old.
Terri-Ann McTiernan and her husband Mark spent time Wednesday scrubbing spray paint off her aunt and uncle’s headstone.
