Hunt underway for vandals who destroyed hundreds of trees in Queens park
Authorities said they were searching for vandals who uprooted nearly 300 freshly planted trees in a Queens park to make way for a DIY dirt bike track.
Photos of the field show numerous holes of overturned soil next to bumpy paths that look to have been used by off-road bikes. City Parks Commissioner Sue Donoghue said hundreds of volunteers had worked on planting trees in the park over the last few years. “Either someone or a group of individuals has taken it upon themselves to excavate land to create what appears to be a well-planned track, destroying 300 recently planted trees in the process,” Ung said in a statement, adding the crime amounted to a felony. “We know that there are residents who enjoy walking these trails on a regular basis, and we are urging them to contact either the Parks Department or NYPD if they saw any suspicious activity in the past week.
