Friends of Salt Point member Susan Ruoff discovered Monday a park bench has been stolen from the north shore of Salt Point. Thieves removed bolts that secured a security chain, then made off with the bench. Park Superintendent Steve Colt says the theft has been reported to the Tompkins County Sheriff's Department, and he is taking other steps to ramp up security during the early park season.
"The bench was situated next to the Little Free Library on the north shore and had been a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy a book under the shade of the trees," Ruoff says. "It is disheartening to have it stolen after all the volunteer work that went into it."
