PENDLETON COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) – On a weekend where we honor veterans who gave their all for our country, someone has vandalized a northern Kentucky American Legion post.

The Pendleton County Emergency Management posted on Facebook saying that a vandal, damaged the air conditioning unit at post 109 in Falmouth.

The copper tubing on the condenser was cut off, leaving their building without air conditioning during a special Memorial Day service.

The Faceboook post says this will be hardship for the veterans’ organization, which relies on donations, dues and money made performing military funerals to stay afloat.

If you have any information on this vandalism call police.
