A stack of hay bales on a western Massachusetts farm that were painted to show support for the Democratic presidential ticket went up in flames, and one man has been arrested in connection with the blaze, authorities said.The unusual political display at Holiday Brook Farm in Dalton featured 19 hay bales that were wrapped and painted with the words: USA and VOTE along with the names of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris. . The display was only up one day before it was torched to the ground. No one was injured.

It looked like kind of graffiti on it and [police] were able to use the timestamp of that photograph.' Authorities later told Pike that the liquid she saw was likely motor oil.
