Up to 125 graves vandalized at Kingston’s Cataraqui Cemetery

More than 100 headstones were vandalized at a Kingston cemetery recently.

Employees at the Cataraqui Cemetery say up to 125 graves were discovered either damaged or spray-painted Thursday morning.

The vandalism was restricted to one section of the cemetery. Employees say they were alerted to the damage by someone visiting a grave Thursday morning.

Police have already been to the scene and an investigation is underway.

This comes just a few days after gravestones across several locations in Quinte West were vandalized much in the same way, with spray paint.

Kingston police have not responded to a request for comment on the matter.
