State Police Investigating Damage to Parked Vehicles in Blythe Township

Police are investigating an incident that left several vehicles damaged.


According to the Pennsylvania State Police at Frackville, some time between 7:00pm Friday, July 13, 2018 and  3:00pm Tuesday, July 17, 2018, damage was done to two parked vehicles parked at 240 Market Street, Blythe Township.

Because of the secluded area where the damage occurred, the owner believes the damage was deliberate and not caused by a hit & run.
