A witness saw someone cutting the cable of the crosswalk light on the west side of the rec centre and then discarding the lights onto the grass.

The crosswalk is located across from the Tom Hornecker Recreation Centre.

In the post, the Town stressed that the lights are intended to keep people safe when crossing The lights play an important role in keeping adults and children safe while crossing the highway, underlining the senselessness of the act.

"Let’s work together to keep our community safe and maintain our shared spaces," the Town's post reads.
