Experience an unprecedented aerial view of Buckingham Fountain, a Chicago landmark, dyed blood-red by vandals overnight. This disturbing act has forced the closure of the iconic fountain "until further notice" as the Chicago Park District undertakes maintenance to restore its original condition.

In this flyover, we see the stark contrast of the red water against the usual serene environment of Grant Park. Initially, some thought it might be a PR stunt or water test. However, spray-painted messages opposing the war in Gaza, including "Stop the Genocide" and "Gaza is Bleeding," quickly revealed the true nature of the vandalism.

Authorities discovered the damage early Saturday morning, with police still searching for suspects. The fountain, typically operational from May through October, features a spectacular water display every hour. However, its jets remain off as cleanup efforts are underway.

Join us as we document the aftermath of this act of vandalism, showcasing both the immediate impact on the fountain and the red-tinged water being drained into Lake Michigan. Witness the intersection of political protest and urban landmarks, and stay informed about the ongoing investigation and restoration efforts.
