HAMBURG, N.Y. — A post on Facebook has caught the attention of many throughout the Village of Hamburg after a pride flag was stolen from a local business.
Katya Kroll-Haeick posted to Facebook that during the overnight hours of Saturday into Sunday, someone stole their pride flag that was hanging on the storefront of DeaLea Photography at the corner of Union and Lake Street.
Kroll-Haeick says the pole was nearly ripped off the wall.
2 On Your Side reached out to Hamburg Police to obtain more information and if they are investigating, but have not heard back from the department.
The business owner says they can and will replace the flag, but explain that they cannot replace the hate in people's hearts.
An update on the flag was provided by Kroll-Haeick to 2 On Your Side. It was found Monday morning by a village public works employee in the neighboring park and was burned.
