PHILLIPS — The Franklin County Sheriff’s Department is investigating a complaint of damage to construction barricades that occurred over the weekend, according to a release.
The damage was reported Monday morning.
Between 8:30 a.m. Saturday and Sunday morning someone destroyed two road barricades at Reeds Mill and Toothaker Pond roads, Lt. David Rackliffe said.
“These barricades were placed to prevent someone from driving into a huge ditch created by torrential rains and flooding earlier this summer,” he said. “Prior to this, someone destroyed a ‘No Thru Trucks’ sign in the same area.”
Local residents have reported seeing a small blue car driving erratically in the area and there is blue paint on the sign base, he said.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Franklin County Sheriff’s Department at 778-6140. People may also use the department’s anonymous tip line by texting “FRANKTIP” and the information to 274637, or online at www.franklincounty-me.org on the “TIPS” tab.
