Historical society president Stacie Torkos said a heavy picnic bench by the grist mill pond was pushed into the pond, and another was “almost pushed in.”
A goose control LED light that was chained to the windmill next to the pond was thrown up into the windmill and damaged, but fortunately was repairable, she added.
Torkos said the LED light cost $500.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call borough police at 610-838-7040 and reference case number 162922.
