NORFOLK, Va. - Police are investigating after the MacArthur Memorial building was spray painted with the word 'ANARCHY' early Wednesday.

Police say the vandalism occurred sometime between midnight and 2:30 a.m. when the incident was reported.

Memorial staff say they're disappointed by the incident.

“This is a place where we honor veterans and a place that is the front door of Norfolk," Memorial Director Chris Kolakowski said. "People come from near and far to come here and it’s a real Norfolk landmark.”

At this time, there are no suspects.

Anyone with information that may help police is asked to call the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
