Also on April 6, a Beechwood Lane resident told police her exterior lamp post had also been struck by vandals.

According to a police report, the "exterior lamp post's glass portion was shattered."

The resident observed a "small four-door sedan with approximately five youths occupying it," the report stated. "The vehicle then drove off without the caller being able to get any further description of the vehicle or its occupants."

Police also responded to another Tisdale Street home on April 6 for the third report of vandalized lamp posts.
