参议员柯林斯缅因办公室遭红漆破坏,警方展开调查

多家媒体11月3日报道,缅因州联邦参议员苏珊·柯林斯位于比德福德的办公室在11月2日晚遭到破坏,有人在建筑前的人行道上倾倒红漆,并留下指责性文字。柯林斯当天向媒体表示,这种行为令人无法接受,对在办公室工作的员工也不公平,所幸员工没有被吓倒,办公室当天仍正常开放办公。
她的竞选团队确认,比德福德警方正在调查这起破坏事件,这也是约一个多月以来该办公室第二次遭到破坏。报道说,该办公室所在地此前曾因移民执法争议引发抗议,相关紧张气氛持续数月。
警方尚未公布嫌疑人信息,也未说明是否已锁定调查方向。办公室方面表示,将配合警方调查,并继续为前来寻求帮助的居民提供服务,呼吁以和平方式表达意见。警方表示,任何掌握线索的市民都可向当地警方提供信息,调查人员将对现场痕迹与周边监控进行核查,确认事件经过后再公布进一步进展。
Senator Collins's Maine Office Vandalized With Red Paint; Police Investigating
Multiple outlets reported on November 3 that the Biddeford, York County, Maine, office of U.S. Senator Susan Collins was vandalized on the night of November 2: red paint was poured on the sidewalk in front of the building and an accusatory message was left. Collins told media the act was unacceptable and unfair to the staff who work in the office, adding that staff were not intimidated and the office opened as usual that day. Her campaign team confirmed that Biddeford police are investigating; it is the second vandalism at the office in just over a month.
Reports said the office's location had previously drawn protests amid controversy over immigration enforcement, and tensions have continued for months. Police have not released information about any suspects or the direction of the investigation. The office said it will cooperate with police, continue serving residents who come for help, and urged people to express their views peacefully. Police said anyone with information can contact local police, and investigators will examine physical evidence and nearby surveillance footage before announcing further developments.
