'8647' etched into grass on the National Mall

6 hours ago

The numbers '8647' were etched into the grass on the National Mall, signaling opposition to President Trump.
The markings appeared as dead grass and were visible from a webcam but not easily seen from ground level.
Emergency vehicles blocked the area, and the U.S. Park Police are investigating, with the Secret Service assisting.
The Department of Interior condemned the act as 'deranged vandalism' and a serious threat against the President.
The phrase '8647' combines '86' (meaning to remove) and '47' (Trump as the 47th president), interpreted as a threat by his administration.
