This paper deals with a Cauchy problem for the coupled system of nonlinear viscoelastic equations with damping and source terms. We prove a new finite time blow-up result for compactly supported initial data with non-positive initial energy as well as positive initial energy by using the modified energy method and the compact support technique.
