Graffiti Covers Columbus Memorial in DC Amid Protests

Graffiti was scrawled on monuments outside Union Station in Washington, DC, as protesters flooded the city on Wednesday, July 24.

Footage captured by Caleb Condor shows graffiti on the Christopher Columbus Memorial Fountain and the Freedom Bell late Wednesday afternoon.

The protests were prompted by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to address Congress. Six people were arrested for unlawful conduct in the House Galleries, Capitol Police said. Credit: Storyful via Storyful
