A Prince Rupert playground has once again been hit by vandals.
Mariners Park, which recently got a new pirate-themed playground worth over $250, 000, was damaged sometime this week.
The new equipment was spray painted with swear words and the new, specialized play surface was also damaged.
It’s not the first time the playground was vandalized. Even during construction, vandals targeted the development, causing $15,000 worth of damage and delaying its completion.
Anyone with information about the vandalism should contact the Prince Rupert RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
