"This was a truly despicable act, and we will do everything we can to identify those responsible and bring them to justice."
"It's disturbing what happened, highlighting the extent of the damage to both historical artifacts and the structure itself."
A group of four men vandalized the Tarrytown Lighthouse in Sleepy Hollow, setting fire to the interior and destroying valuable historical items after its recent $3.4 million renovation. The incident caused at least $100,000 in damages, with some estimates suggesting that figure may rise. This lighthouse, dating back to 1883, was a centerpiece of local heritage. County officials, alarmed by the destruction, seek the public's help in identifying the suspects through shared surveillance photos as they emphasize the need for justice.
