Coquitlam RCMP are looking for witnesses and video evidence after vandals trashed a middle school field roughly a week before the start of classes.
Police first received reports of a black truck entering the field at Summit Middle school (1450 Parkway Boulevard) in Coquitlam at 2:30 a.m. Sept. 2. It took off 15 minutes later.
“The vehicle damaged the entire length of the grass by doing doughnuts,” said Const. Deanna Law in a statement, adding with students back in school next week and COVID-19 protocols in place, outdoor learning could take a hit.
“Police would like to find the suspect that destroyed the field or have them step forward and take accountability for their actions,” she said in the release.
Anyone with information about the incident are asked to call Coquitlam RCMP’s non-emergency number at 604-945-1550 and reference file 2020-23759.
For those who would like to remain anonymous and perhaps claim a reward, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or go to their website at www.solvecrime.ca
