Kingston police are looking for two men who were allegedly involved in forcing open and breaking a parking barrier at the Kingston General Hospital parking garage.

Police say around noon on April 16, a man driving a four-door sedan stopped at the exit barrier of the underground parking garage on Stuart Street opposite Kingston General Hospital.

He exited his vehicle and walked to the pay machine, then returned to his vehicle, where he spoke to a passenger inside the vehicle.

Police say the passenger then walked over to the barrier and forced it up, causing approximately $300 damage to the motor that operates it, while the driver exited the lot.
