Amery Police Chief's Squad, Truck Vandalized Outside Home

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Authorities are investigating after a police squad and truck were vandalized outside the home of a chief in western Wisconsin.

The Amery Police Department said the incident happened Sunday while the vehicles were parked outside the home of Police Chief Thomas Marson. Both a squad car and his personal truck were scratched extensively and had paint thrown on them.

Authorities say the suspect who committed the crime is also victimizing the community as taxpayer dollars will have to be used to fix the squad car.

The Polk County Sheriff's Office is investigating the incident, and anyone with information should call (715) 485-8300.
