CBSNews: Eco-Vandals Attack Hummer In D.C.

On Monday, two masked men were seen taking a bat to every window [of the Hummer], knifing each tire and scratching a message into the body — "For The Environ."

"The thought of somebody vandalizing it never crossed my mind," Groves, who lives in an upscale northwest Washington neighborhood with his mother, told the Washington Post. "I've kind of been in shock."

"I'd say one in five people who come by have that 'you-got-what-you-deserve' look," said friend Andy Sexton, 27, who is visiting from Arkansas and has been helping Groves deal with fallout from the crime, told the Post.

Police say they haven't seen vandalism so severe with a clear political message in recent years. Investigators say they don't have many leads.
