GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK — Investigators with the National Park Service asked for help Monday to identify two people who they say recently vandalized rocks in the Grand Canyon.
Two people were seen spray painting a rock feature at the Grand Canyon’s South Rim on May 22, according to Grand Canyon National Park officials. Another visitor to the area reportedly witnessed the vandalism in progress and took pictures of the duo.
Before park rangers could respond to the area, the two people spray painted the message “Evans 16” on a rock feature and left, according to park officials. They said the two people were in the area of the Yavapai Geology Museum.
Anyone with information about the vandalism or the identity of the two people can contact the NPS Investigative Services Branch by calling 888-653-0009. Those who call the tip line can remain anonymous.
