Orchard Park, N.Y. (WBEN) - Investigators are focusing on two construction workers as primary suspects allegedly responsible for the vandalism done to four private, luxury suites inside the new, $2.2 billion home of the Buffalo Bills.

WBEN has learned as many as seven people, including those two individuals are at the center of the investigation.

“Law enforcement continues to actively pursue the matter,” Gilbane |Turner officials confirmed in an emailed statement to WBEN.

“The actions of a very small number of individuals do not reflect the values or conduct of the approximately 8,000 people who have worked on this project to date,” the statement continued. “They demonstrate professionalism, pride and respect each and every day."

Credit was given to the $100,000 reward that Gilbane | Turner offered on Feb. 18 and sparked a flood of calls to a specially created tip line. Gilbane/Turner are the lead contractors on the stadium project.

“The Gilbane | Turner team has worked diligently to create a respectful and supportive environment on this project,” in the emailed statement. “We have made significant investments in job site amenities to support the trade workers performing demanding work, often in challenging weather conditions. They deserve a professional and respectful work place.”
