Trump Hating Thief Loose in Grove!
9/22/16
By Hilde Kate Lysiak
A Trump-sign stealing vandal is on the loose in Selinsgrove.
Campaign signs for the Republican nominee for President have mysteriously gone missing from people’s yards around the Snyder County area.
“I had three signs out in my yard. Two were stolen and one was ripped up,”one Grove resident, who asked to remain anonymous, told the Orange Street News.
Other locals have reported their Donald Trump signs have disappeared. Often in the middle of the night.
Trump signs have also vanished in Middleburg, according to posters on the Snyder County Alerts Facebook page.
Tensions are high this campaign season. An exclusive Orange Street News poll revealed that Selinsgrove remains divided over who should become our next President.
But Trump fans claim they won’t allow the free speech hating vandal to silence their voice.
“Who ever stole and damaged my signs is trying to silence me and I won’t allow that,” the resident told the OSN. “Ill keep putting them up and up and up.”
An officer from the Selinsgrove police department told the OSN that they didn’t have information on the number of stolen signs, but warned that the theft of a political sign is a serious offense. The vandal could get charged with criminal mischief. If they do, they either go to jail for two years or pay a fine of $2,000.
If anyone has any information or has had their political sign stolen please contact the Selinsgrove Police Department or hildelysiak@gmail.com.
I dont have any signs up precisely because of this. if you are so out of touch you dont know there are 2 candidates then dont vote. Also some towns allow political signs for only 30 days prior to the election. Stealing is a bad thing. i hope trump wins. An extra sign tho wont change my vote.
