Bellmore Little League Clubhouse Vandalized

The Bellmore Little League Clubhouse, located at the Bruce H. Gary Memorial Field of Heroes, was vandalized on Wednesday.

According to League President Steve Kropp, lights were smashed, a fire door was heavily damaged, banners were torn down and a swastika was marked on the side of the building.

"I went down there and scrubbed it off the wall," Kropp said, adding he thought it was teenagers who were responsible for the damage.

"I don't think it's kids that play in my league," he added.

Kropp said that vandalism such as this has been an ongoing problem at the clubhouse, located in the rear of Reinhard Early Childhood Center on South St. Mark's Ave.

"We've been working with the school board to get lights on down there," he said.
