Trump afirma que seis fueron arrestados por vandalismo en la piscina reflectante

El presidente Donald Trump afirmó que seis personas fueron arrestadas por presunto vandalismo en la piscina reflectante del Monumento a Lincoln, informó AP News. En declaraciones anteriores, Trump dijo que autoridades federales habían detenido a varias personas después de que la renovación de 14 millones de dólares mostrara crecimiento de algas y pintura descascarada, según AP News. Fox News señaló que Trump anunció los arrestos y advirtió que los responsables podrían enfrentar penas de prisión, mientras se planificaban reparaciones. NBC News añadió que Trump advirtió que podría ser necesario drenar el agua para efectuar las reparaciones, y NPR informó que funcionarios no confirmaron ni los arrestos ni actos de sabotaje.

Funcionarios federales declararon posteriormente que cinco personas fueron detenidas en relación con el presunto daño, informó NBC News, mientras Trump anunció el inicio inmediato de trabajos de reparación tras una inspección en helicóptero, según BBC. La administración programó el drenaje de la piscina, informó BBC, y Trump dijo que presentará pruebas en corte de que se había hecho una gran hendidura en la piscina, informó CBS News, aunque funcionarios señalaron que no se halló tal evidencia. El último informe de AP News indicó que las reparaciones continúan pese a los problemas de algas y que los arrestos alegados siguen sin ser confirmados por las autoridades.
