DALLAS—Days before the Fourth of July, some residents of a North Dallas neighborhood have told police American flags hanging outside their homes were burned.
Seventy-year-old Ed Jordan, who served in the Marines and the Marine Corp Reserves, discovered scorched pieces of the American flag and the U.S. Marine Corps flag Monday that had been hanging outside his townhome.

He said he saw charred residue around his home and realized "they had set the flags on fire."

Jordan said he was in shock wondering why "someone would do this" and plans to replace his flags.

No arrests have been reported.
