Vandals defaced the Yardley Country Club property with racial slurs and swastikas, borough police said.
In a social media post, the police said the vandalism occurred between 8 p.m. Friday Sept. 25 and 7 a.m. Sept. 26.
“Portions of the golf course greens were intentionally damaged with racial slurs and swastika symbols carved into the turf,” the post said.
“This type of behavior is not only a criminal act, but it is also hateful, offensive and has no place in our community,” the post continued. “The Yardley Borough police Department is committed to thoroughly investigating this incident and holding those responsible accountable.”
A call seeking details on the vandalism Wednesday morning was not immediately returned.
Tips can be given by calling the
department at (215) 493-2782 or (215) 493-6832.
