Police are investigating “an act of aggression” outside of Tempe City Hall where a Pride flag was taken down from a pole and burned.

The city has replaced the Tempe Pride flag, and the damaged flagpole has also been repaired, officials said Tuesday afternoon.

June is Pride Month, which celebrates the LGBTQ+ community, and one way the city commemorates the month is by flying a Pride flag that has the City of Tempe logo on it at city facilities.

The flag is joined by the American flag, the State of Arizona flag and a Juneteenth flag for the month, according to a release.

No other flags were damaged, and a new Tempe Pride flag is now flying.

“This act of aggression does not represent our community. Hate has no place in Tempe. We are committed to championing diversity, inclusion and equity and ensuring that our community is safe and welcoming for everyone,” City Manager Andrew Ching said.

Tempe Mayor Corey Woods said “cities are great because of the people who live in them.”

“We will not stand by while someone tries to threaten, bully and intimidate members of our community. We will continue our efforts to make our city stronger, even more welcoming, and even more inclusive. We support our LGBTQ+ community. We stand as one with them.”
