Yet as one of the videos shows, the news van's headlights were pointed at the memorial before, during, and after the incident, illuminating it as the suspect spray-painted the monument.
Channel 12's team arrived in the parking lot of Wesley Bolin Plaza just after 4:40 a.m., the video shows, seconds after the vandalism suspect rode up on a bicycle.
The suspect appears to have ridden or walked near the van before and after the incident, which is still being investigated by the Arizona Department of Public Safety.

West indicates in the August 17 broadcast that his arrival at the memorial at roughly the same time it was vandalized was a coincidence.

Our guys actually handed the VC a huge defeat re their Tet attack.
However, Chronkite of CBS turned our victory into defeat with his fake news reporting of what happened with the VC’s Tet offensive.
I’m pinging ASA Vet for his insight to what happened versus Chronkite’s fake news and lies.
Below is a search link re Chronkite’s lies. He is a hero to the left, and too many of us a co murderer of many Vietnamese and our troops, after his lies enabled the VC to win a publicity victory!

25 Aug: Phoenix New Times: Channel 12 changes tale on Confederate Memorial vandalism after New Times story
by Ray Stern
The Facebook site of the reporter, Bryan West, has been taken down, too...
Also of note, Channel 3 (KTVK-TV) and Channel 5 (KPHO-TV) published the surveillance video on AZFamily.com last week, but edited out key scenes of the suspect’s arrival and departure. AZFamily also cut out the part near the end of the video where West and the cameraman show up, and the report failed to explain to viewers that the source of the light on the memorial is a news van’s headlights.
The 911 call that West made about the vandalism has not been released by the Arizona Department of Public Safety...

Thanks, keep us posted!
If the news van illuminated the statue couldn’t the news reporter be charged with aiding in the crime?
Those actions stink like when the Nazis controlled their news!
Let’s look at the bright side. He didn’t get Out of the news van. He just colluded with the news station to vandalize the statue.
The Mike Broomhead show talks about the Phoenix News Times report on Channel 12’s reporting on the vandalized monument in Phoenix. DPS is investigating the person who vandalized the monument after they walked near the News fan before and after the spray painting.
