The central fountain at Lincoln Center was mysteriously dyed bright yellow by some pranksters over the weekend, causing management to turn of the water after the incident on Saturday for cleaning.

Someone tampered with the famous Lincoln Center fountain on Saturday, dying the normally clear water yellow in the early afternoon. In a statement to the Daily News, Lincoln Center said the dye was “water-based.” “A water based yellow dye was put into the fountain,” Lincoln Center spokeswoman Mary Caraccioli said in a statement. “The fountain is being cleaned. Our security team notified the NYPD.”
