Vanessa Hudgens is facing 6 months in jail after posting an Instgram photo.
A heart carved into red rock is drawing the attention of authorities in Arizona who are investigating to see if actress Vanessa Hudgens is the culprit.
According to reports, Vanessa Hudgens posted a photo of the carving, bearing the names Vanessa and Austin, on her Instagram page Sunday but later removed it. Other photos with the hash tag “sedonadreams” still appeared on the site Tuesday.
The media brought the photo to the attention of the Coconino National Forest, which manages land around Sedona known for their towering red rocks.
From ABC News:
Smith said he isn’t sure whether law enforcement has located a heart that matches the one posted by Hudgens within the forest’s 250 square-mile Red Rock Ranger District. Authorities will be researching social media posts and trying to contact any witnesses, he said.
Damaging a natural feature on U.S. Forest Service land is a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and a maximum $5,000 fine. Smith said he’s unaware of any signs in the district to inform people of the law. Forest officials try to maintain the natural beauty of the area, he said.
Vanessa Hudgens recently appeared on Fox’s live production of Grease. She’s best known for her role as Gabriella Montez in the High School Musical TV show and movie.
A representative for Hudgens, 27, did not immediately respond to messages left by the Associated Press.
