Vandalism in La Junta floods park, causes damages

(LA JUNTA, Colo.) — La Junta Parks and Recreation is looking for any information after recent instances of vandalism at city parks.

Parks and Recreation reported via Facebook there were multiple instances of vandalism, littering, and damage at City Park and the Brick and Tile park. La Junta Fire Department Chief Brad Davidson told FOX21 News the damages were discovered Monday morning, Sept. 16.

Davidson said they believe the person responsible started at La Junta City Park, where they broke the valve off a sprinkler valve box, causing extensive flooding of the park.

The person spread trash around the park and damaged playground equipment, according to Davidson. They also went into the bathroom and spread feces “everywhere.”

The spree did not end there, according to the La Junta Fire Department–the suspect or suspects continued at the Brick and Tile Park where more damage was caused.

La Junta Parks and Recreation is working on going through camera footage. Anyone with information, video, or doorbell camera footage of the incident is asked to contact the La Junta Police Department.
