Landmark Las Vegas Sign Vandalised

News just in; tourists lining up to snap photos of the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign Monday morning, many noticed something amiss. Red graffiti was scrawled on the famous landmark, defacing the main face and one of its structural legs. Most visitos noticed it right away and all of them expressed that they were very disappointed someone would damage the popular tourist attraction.One visitor was quoted as saying "It's kind of sad someone would vandalize something like that. It's the entrance to the city and everything."

The Young Electric Sign Company owns the sign and leases it to Clark County, county spokeswoman Jennifer Knight said. A red Sharpie marker was used to scrawl the lettering, said Russell Davis of the county's Department of Public Works. If the company can't restore the sign to its original condition, the county will call in its own contractors to remove the graffiti, Davis said.
