REXBURG — A well-known Brigham Young University-Idaho sign in Rexburg has been vandalized with spray paint and profanity.

On Sunday at 7:48 a.m., the Rexburg Police Department received a report about the vandalized sign at the intersection of East 2nd South and South 1st East.

The stone outline of the BYU-Idaho sign reads, “I wont repent for this, b****” in black spray paint, followed by, “Don’t need to.”

University Public Affairs Director Brett Crandall told EastIdahoNews.com that vandalism like this is rare.

The graffiti has been covered by a tarp.

According to Rexburg Police Department Assistant Chief Gary Hagen, they have a suspect and are investigating the incident.
