Rocky River, Ohio

Vandalism, Parklane Road

On October 14, a resident reported that her plastic birdbath in her backyard was damaged over the weekend. He also reported strange movements of objects in the backyard. When the officer arrived at the home, he noticed that a heavier birdbath in the next door neighbor’s backyard was damaged. The neighbor was contacted who said the deer was damaging items in his backyard and that’s why he got into his third birdbath. He reported seeing them disturbing the property at night. No charges have been filed against the deer at this time.
