Visitors found a noose Wednesday at an exhibition on segregation at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. the second time in less than a week that a noose was found on Smithsonian grounds.
After U.S. Park Police came to investigate the incident, they removed the noose and the exhibition reopened within a few hours, the magazine reports.
The police did not respond to NPR's request for comment about the ongoing investigation.
Five days earlier, police found a noose hanging from a tree near the Hirshhorn Museum, less than a mile away.
