Some tourists from South Etobicoke or elsewhere heading to Niagara Falls for a vacation or to sightsee at this time of the year are getting lost due to missing road signs.
Police say someone has destroyed or removed dozens of street signs from all over Niagara Region.
Niagara Regional Police said they are investigating more than 50 signs that were damaged, or removed, during a three day period, from July 9 to 12.
“A series of road signs that have been damaged or removed in the City of Niagara Falls,” police said in a news release. “The suspect, or suspects, are removing the signs and throwing them.”
The City of Niagara has replaced the signs.
Police do not have a motive as to why the expensive signs are being vandalized.
Police are seeking the public’s help in identifying those responsible. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Niagara Regional Police Service at 905-688-4111, ext. 1002200.
