A Wicker Park church said vandals have targeted their pride flags, tearing them down nearly half a dozen times over the past three months.
Once part of a trio, the lone remaining pride flag at Wicker Park Lutheran Church is now strapped behind a protective metal gate.
The church's surveillance cameras caught a few of the incidents. In each, a male jogger runs up with conviction, hops a small barrier just out of frame, and then runs away with one, sometimes two, of the rainbow flags. So now, once again, the church and its grateful tenants are rehanging flags, doubling down on their commitment to inclusivity, vandals or not.
