When officers arrived, they found that someone had used the park for off-roading and had left tire marks on the soccer field.
It caused significant damage to the grass.
“The damage will impact the start of the soccer season for the group that uses these fields,” the police said. “Our parks are shared community spaces. Damage not only impacts the appearance and safety of these areas, but it also results in unexpected repair costs.”
Police said if anyone saw off-roading or the destruction of park property, they should call (937) 426-1225.
