COLUMBIA, SC (WIS)
Columbia Police are investigating vandalism at a cemetery overnight Saturday into Sunday.
The vandalism occurred at Greenlawn Memorial Park off Leesburg Road, according to several tweets from the Columbia Police Department.
The vandals damaged grave markers and headstone vases to more than 100 grave sites. Flowers were shredded, vases were dislodged and American flags that had been placed on veterans' graves were strewn throughout the cemetery.
Cemetery manager Suzanne Elkins tells WIS at least a dozen families went there after church Sunday morning to find their loved ones' graves damaged. She said the vandals caused about $15,000 in damage.
“How stupid, I mean is this what you guys think of doing on a weekend night, really? I know that sounds odd but why a cemetery?" Elkins asked. "There’s nothing to steal and nothing worth value except families' precious memories, their loved ones are here. It’s just nonsense.”
“We are deeply saddened by the destruction and vandalism that occurred in our cemetery this weekend, said Elkins. "We wish to assure our families that we are fully committed to restoring the park and bringing the gravesites back to their dignified and respectable standards."
“I just couldn’t say nothing but wow," said Tina Ravnell of Columbia. "But I hurried up and came to see if it was my dad's grave or something.”
Cemetery crews and families spent most of Sunday cleaning up the damage. Elkins said security cameras and additional lighting will be installed. She also said the cemetery will pay for all costs of repairs.

Don’t forget the MSM’s complicity in this act. The moronic perpetrators would probably have never thought of this were it not for the many reports of planned grave desecrations at Arlington by the MSM. The reports were probably just fake news to motivate the rabble. /speculation
