Officer Rich Enea was patrolling the area around 3 a.m. when he discovered car after car with smashed windshields. Some cars had multiple windows broken. “There was a lot of damage,” he said.

Police say it looks like the work of vandals with baseball bats.

“This is the kind of thing that really gets to us,” said officer Richard McEachin. “There’s absolutely no reason for it,” All of the cars were parked on the street and there were no reports of items missing from any of them.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Clayton Police Department at 673-7350.
