‘Trump’ burned into lawn of Lewes couple

Delaware State Police investigating incident in Wolfe Pointe community

Tensions have been high surrounding the contentious presidential election campaign, and someone has apparently taken it too far.

An unknown person or group allegedly used weedkiller to write out what appears to say “TRUMP” in the front yard of an elderly couple in the Wolfe Pointe community just outside Lewes.

The victims, Charlotte King and Aimee Wiest, showed support for Joe Biden by placing a campaign sign in their front yard. They also have a Black Lives Matter flag and a black-and-white sign that says “Enough is Enough.” King, an 83-year-old Black woman, is the chair of the steering committee for the Southern Delaware Alliance for Racial Justice. She said she believes the act was a targeted attack.
