London, Ont., police have released surveillance images obtained as part of an investigation into the removal and damage of a Progress Pride flag in the city’s northwest end.
The burned remnants of the flag, which is like the rainbow Pride flag but also includes elements to acknowledge people of colour and the transgender community, were located by a citizen along Aldersbrook Road, west of Wonderland Road, Monday morning.
Police believe that the flag was taken from a home on Winding Woods Road, off of Aldersbrook Road, at some point between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. Monday morning.
Video surveillance was obtained from neighbouring homes and police have released images of two suspects. One of the suspects was wearing beige pants, a hooded sweater in a light colour, a dark jacket and dark footwear while the other was wearing dark clothing and a hooded sweater.
The investigation is ongoing.
