Vandalism – Theft

November 19, 2020UncategorizedBruce Olson

Hey folks…do you get a little tired of people damaging property that doesn’t belong to them? Would you help us out here? Within the last week with most of the damage being on the night of November 15, many road signs were spray-painted with brown and white paint. The road itself was spray-painted in many areas and road signs were also stolen. Much of the damage was very obscene comments spray-painted on roads, signs and mailboxes. Much of this vandalism on the night of November 15 was done on County Road P between Coon Valley and Westby. There was also some signs spray-painted around November 13 on County Road O near Stoddard. Friends, if you have any idea who did this damage, you can submit an ANONYMOUS tip…it is so simple and it will help us stop this awful criminal activity. Please keep your eyes open at night to any suspicious activity! **Special Note: we have many photos but could not post them due to the very obscene comments that were spray-painted.

Vandalism at Esofea Park…on May 11, 2020, law enforcement received a report of some recent vandalism at Esofea Park, which is located southwest of Westby, WI. Park buildings and picnic tables were spray-painted with red graffiti. Do you have information on the people who did this vandalism? If so, submit an anonymous tip! **Photos of the vandalism can also be seen at www.faceboook.com/vernoncrimestoppers.

It is our hope that details of this actual case from police records may cause someone to remember and report what they know about the person or persons involved. Tipsters may be eligible for cash rewards of up to $3,000.00 and will remain anonymous.
