According to the Lakes Area Police Department Facebook page, the vandalism occurred sometime last week.

The damage included ruined tombstones and tipped over headstones.

"While the financial damage is indeed high, it's nothing compared [to] the emotional damage inflicted on those with loved ones buried here," a statement on the Lakes Area Police Department Facebook page said.
