Former Olympian canoeist reportedly indicted after reaching into reflecting pool – US politics live

A former Olympic canoeist has been indicted on a felony property destruction charge in Washington, D.C. for reaching into the Reflecting Pool. David Hearn, 67, of Bethesda, Maryland, was charged Thursday after touching peeling coating on the pool's side. Hearn told the AP he examined newly exposed material and released it after a park worker intervened, though President Trump characterized the incident as vandalism.
