“It was reported that although most headstones only needed to be up righted, damage was found to some of the headstones,” OPP said on Thursday.
North Kawartha Township Mayor Carolyn Amyotte also reported that a retaining wall at the cemetery had been spray-painted.
Playground damaged
OPP say the weekend prior, damage was found to some playground equipment at the Compass Early Learning and Care daycare adjacent to the Central Public School.
“It was reported that a canopy was ripped down as well as mischief to a kid’s climber as well as toys belonging to the daycare,” police stated.
Anyone with information on either incident is asked to call OPP at 705-742-0401, the non-emergency line (888) 310-1122 or Crime Stoppers.
