Vandals damage St. Johns Veterans Park for fourth time this month

The vandals, who DellaPort believes are in their teens or early 20s, cut a lock on a fence to gain access to an area with golf carts and a tractor.

That's why DellaPorta said they'll be relentless in trying to catch the vandals.

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. — "They broke in," said Jerry DellaPorta, director of fields and operations at the park. "They removed the gas tank from the last golf cart and started a fire on the artificial turf field."

They also broke in and took out golf carts, then came back and drove them into a pond.

The latest stunt not only disrupts soccer practices, it will cost a lot to fix. The director of the complex believes $35,000-$40,000 worth of total damage was done in the last two weeks.
