Park Vandalism

Lexington police say some teens in an SUV went riding through and around Castlewood Park, hitting cars and even taking out a fence.

One witness reports waking up to a loud boom.

Police say the vandals, teens, were joy riding through the park and slammed into parked cars on neighboring Castlewood Drive.

Another witness says the vandals hit the front of her car, careened through her front yard, knocked down her house number, dug up her gas main, then crashed through her neighbor's fence.

Saunda Coleman lives in the neighborhood and helps run a camp for children at the park during the summer. She says she's fed up with the crime at the park and says police patrol should be stepped up in the area.
