The Wilmington Police Department is investigating the disappearance of the signature American flags that fly on the bridge over the Kankakee River. The Stars and Stripes went missing, either stolen or potentially tossed into the river, just prior to this year’s Memorial Day holiday.
Wilmington Police Chief Joe Mitchell said the department was called to the bridge on Sunday, May 29, one day after the members of the Wilmington Moose Lodge Riders had placed the 26 American flags along bridge’s walkway.
