Port Chester Looking For Culprit Behind Parking Kiosk Vandalism

PORT CHESTER, NY — A senseless act of vandalism overnight will cost taxpayers money, but village officials said the damage runs far deeper.

The damage was discovered in the shoppers parking lot, at the corner of Adee St. and King St., early Thursday morning.

Images posted by the village on social media show parts of the glass enclosure, in place to protect shoppers from the elements while paying for parking, were completely shattered.

"This type of deliberate destruction within the village is a commentary on important Quality of Life issues that continue to set us back as a community," village officials said.

The village is asking anyone with any information on who may be responsible for the vandalism to contact the Port Chester Police Department right away at 914-939-6332. All calls will be kept confidential.

"We take incidents like this very serious, and will pursue any and all leads to bring the perpetrator to justice," police officials said in statement.
