本周末,多人因涉嫌破坏新翻修的林肯纪念堂倒影池被捕,这促使唐纳德·特朗普总统做出强烈回应,并加强了该场地的安保措施。

记者艾米丽·米勒周五在X平台发布了一段两分钟视频,画面中一名身着亮绿色赛车服的男子与国民警卫队队员对峙,随后被美国公园警察戴上手铐。

《华盛顿邮报》随后确认,米勒视频中的男子是67岁的戴维·赫恩,他曾三次参加奥运会,目前因犯有毁坏政府财产的轻罪被逮捕。

赫恩告诉该媒体,他刚完成52英里的自行车骑行,注意到新泳池衬里有“一块部分脱落的部分”,于是“伸手进水里想感受一下那是什么”。

米勒在她的帖子中声称赫恩“抓住”了国家公园管理局工作人员用于清理藻类生长的水管,但赫恩告诉《华盛顿邮报》,他的自行车轮胎“可能”只是碰到了水管。

“我没有破坏任何东西,”赫恩告诉该媒体。

赫恩曾在1996年因在波托马克河上划独木舟被指控,但后来指控被撤销。他表示:“我没有破坏、打碎或剥落任何东西。等我意识到发生了什么时,我已经被戴上手铐了。”

米勒周六报道称,周五共有7人因进入泳池在不同事件中被拘留,这导致安保大幅加强。

特朗普周六下午在Truth Social上就近期事件发表讲话,证实公园警察已逮捕“多名”破坏“我们国家壮丽的倒影池”的人员。(注:原文此处拼写错误为Poll,应为Pool)

“谁会做出这种事?”总统在帖子中写道。“这些是涉及破坏国家古迹的非常严重的罪行。可判数年监禁!修复工作将立即开始。”

Multiple people have been arrested this weekend after allegedly vandalizing the newly refurbished Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, prompting a strong response from President Donald Trump and an increase in security at the site.

Journalist Emily Miller posted a two-minute video on X Friday showing a man in lime-green racing gear questioning a National Guardsman before being handcuffed by U.S. Park Police.

The Washington Post later identified the man in Miller’s video as David Hearn, 67, a former three-time Olympian who was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property.

Hearn told the outlet he had just finished a 52-mile bike ride when he noticed a “partially detached piece” of the new pool liner and “reached into the water to see what it felt like.”

While Miller claimed in her post that Hearn “grabbed” a hose that National Park Service workers were using to remediate algae growth, Hearn told The Washington Post the hose “may” only have been touched by his bike tire.

“I didn’t vandalize anything,” Hearn told the outlet.

Hearn, who was arrested in 1996 on charges of canoeing on the Potomac River, but later had them dropped, said, “I didn’t destroy, break, or peel anything. By the time I realized what was happening, I was already being handcuffed.”

Miller reported Saturday that seven people were detained in separate incidents on Friday for getting into the pool, which has led to a major security surge.

Trump addressed the recent incidents Saturday afternoon on Truth Social, confirming Park Police arrested “multiple” people for vandalizing “our Nation’s magnificent Reflecting Poll.”

“Who would do such a thing?” the president wrote in the post. “These are very serious crimes having to do with the destruction of National Monuments. Years in jail! Work will begin immediately on its repair.”

Trump on Friday noted Park Police has had “real problems” with vandalism at the Reflecting Pool, as the administration faces scrutiny over peeling paint and algae growth just weeks after a $14.8 million restoration project was completed.

The White House, U.S. Park Police and Miller did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.
