Residents of Youbou have been left to wonder just who would have the nerve to tear up Youbou Little League Park with their ATV.
The incident occurred on the evening of May 26.
Duncan Hume lives nearby and also happens to be a director of the Youbou Community Association and also sits on the parks board. He can’t believe that this happened.
“Somebody was driving around on a quad on the ball field,” he confirmed. “It’s just simple straightforward vandalism. It’s kind of thoughtless.”
“The other thing is that’s a bit surprising to me is that nobody saw them apparently, Hume added, noting one person mentioned she’d heard it but she said she thought they were on the road and not on the grass.
The incident has been reported to the Lake Cowichan RCMP.
Those with information are encouraged to contact the Lake Cowichan RCMP at 250-749-6668 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
