Hockey Stick Used To Bash Township Truck Over Salt Beef
SOUTHAMPTON, Pa. (AP) - Police in a southeastern Pennsylvania township are investigating a hockey stick attack on a public works truck, apparently by someone upset that their street wasn't getting road salt after recent snows.
The Bucks County Courier Times reports the Northampton Township truck's window was found smashed Wednesday by someone who left a note saying, "Developments need salt."
Township public works director Gary Crossland says the municipality is struggling with a shortage of road salt after a string of storms.
He called the attack on the truck "ridiculous" and asked, "Why would I waste salt on developments when we're so stretched for it?"
Police are trying to figure out who smashed the truck window.
