Damage that appears to be vandalism was reported to the Westwood Police Department this morning regarding the property at 288 Washington Street, the site of an unoccupied building under construction on the corner of Washington and East streets.
Lieutenant Christopher Sheehy noted that the initial police report of 7:31 a.m. today, Monday, January 3, 2022, indicates that eight newly constructed condominium units were damaged. Lights were broken in five of the condominium units, with toilets smashed in two of those units. An additional two units also had toilets broken, and one additional unit had been sprayed with substance from a spray can in addition to having broken lights and a broken toilet.
No damage to the commercial spaces on the lower level were detailed in the initial police report. The incident is being investigated and further details will be forthcoming.
This and additional news of Westwood Police Department's activities will be reported in the next installment of Westwood Minute's Police Log series of articles to be published later today or tomorrow.
