The mystery surrounding the vandalism at the new Buffalo Bills stadium is edging closer to being solved. According to a recent report, seven construction workers have been identified in connection with the incident involving pornographic graffiti found in various parts of the new Highmark Stadium. These areas, which included luxury suites, required security clearance, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
The discovery of the graffiti brought construction to a halt for four days. Sources close to the investigation revealed that three of the seven individuals have confessed to their involvement, although no formal charges have been filed yet.
Gilbane Turner, the management company overseeing the project, has been unwavering in their response. They issued a strong statement emphasizing their zero-tolerance policy towards such acts, underscoring the importance of maintaining a respectful and professional work environment.
The financial impact of the vandalism is significant, with damages estimated at $150,000. Paul Brown, President of the Buffalo Building Trades Council, explained that the graffiti seeped into the marble and flooring, necessitating costly repairs.
In an effort to expedite justice, a $100,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible. While the report doesn't specify how the suspects were identified, their names remain undisclosed.
Despite this setback and a few other hurdles over the past couple of years, Gilbane Turner assures that the stadium's construction is still on schedule, aiming for completion in time for the 2026 NFL season.
