On March 27th at approximately 9:18 a.m. Deputy J.E. Cordes responded to Unitarian Universalist Church, located at 25 Chalice Circle, for a report of a vandalism. The front door of the church was blocked with multiple items, a post had been broken off, and a sign for the church was painted over.

Luckily, the suspect left his name and phone number on the front door of the church. Later in the day, Deputy A.M. Pitts located the suspect back on church property. He plainly stated his was in fact the one who committed the vandalism and was subsequently trespassed. Warrants for removal of church property and destruction of property were obtained, but have not yet been served.
