Emmett Till Historic Sign Shot With Bullet Hole — Again

A sign marking the area where the body of Emmett Till was found in Mississippi was damaged again by gun fire, marking the fourth time the historical marker has been vandalized.

This is reportedly the fourth time the sign has been vandalized since it was installed in 2013. Images of the sign went viral in 2016 after it was riddled with more than 40 bullet holes.

The sign was replaced just 35 days ago, and the Emmett Till Interpretive Center is now planning to replace it once again and to add additional features to the tell the story of Till’s death.
