President Donald Trump claimed vandals sliced a '300ft slit' into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which his administration recently refurbished to the tune of $16m.
He said that six individuals have been arrested after they allegedly vandalized the monument in Washington, DC and has said that the pool will likely need to be drained to complete repair work.
The Daily Mail was unable to verify the location of the football field-sized gash during a trip to the Reflecting Pool on Monday.
Over a dozen law enforcement, Park Police, National Park employees, National Guardsmen and visitors present at the Reflecting Pool on Monday afternoon said they found no sign of a 'gash' in the monument that Trump has been riled over.
Trump claimed there are photos of the alleged damage that would be released in court.
