Police say they are close to finding tree sign arsonists
Heather Bellow reports for The Berkshire Eagle that in February someone attempted to burn down a tree with an obscene sign supporting former President Donald Trump off Route 41 in Great Barrington, and police say they are close to figuring out the culprit. The tree had two signs, one said "F the left" and the other was a standard Trump campaign sign. A second tree next to that one, had signs that said "MAGA" and "Let's Go Brandon." The latter phrase is generally considered right-wing code for "F--- Joe Biden." Great Barrington Police Chief Paul Storti said, “We’re getting close.... We have some leads that we’re working on.” The arsonists left their gas can at the scene. Property owners Alyce and Michael Zucco declined to comment.
