A memorial in Louisville, Kentucky honoring fallen law enforcement officers was vandalized this week by the burning of two American flags draped over it.
It appeared two American flags were burned in the eternal flame that sits atop the memorial in Jefferson Square Park, not far from the Louisville Metro Department of Corrections building, the report said. Brandon Gillespie is an associate editor at Fox News. Follow him on Twitter at @brandon_cg.
