Well, it says the damage was done as a result of a botched installation and not vandalism as initially represented. There was potential vandalism. Vandalism. And we know that there was vandalism because there's witnesses. That's also in the brief that you're citing, that there's witnesses that talked about the fact that there was vandalism.
