Fresh Prince Albert ball park upgrades destroyed
Prince Albert Police are investigating a case of vandalism at Downtown Lions Park.
Someone drove a stolen vehicle through the fence – knocking a cement support out of the ground – at Diamond 3 between Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Both the infield and outfield were ripped up, the infield back stop was torn down, and there was extensive damage to the foul line and outfield fencing.
The ball diamonds are used by the Prince Albert Slo-Pitch League.
“Overall you just feel disheartened,” said league president Trevor Gunville, adding that the league had just recently replaced the backstops with some grant money obtained through the Northern Lights Development Corporation.
