Police checked out a vandalism complaint on Pelican Drive. Once on scene, officers spoke with the plant manager, who said three people entered his lot that was locked around 1:54 in the morning. The suspects were all white males and looked fairly young. He said they did not take any property out of the vehicles parked in the lot. The suspects did discharge multiple fire extinguishers and climb on the construction equipment on the property. He said he is worried for the suspects' well-being, because the chance of the suspects getting themselves hurt or killed on the property is high. The plant manager said this was not the first time the suspects have come on the property and discharged the fire extinguishers. He would like to charge the suspects for vandalism if police are able to identify them since he has to pay people to come out and refill the fire extinguishers.
