- Vandals cut down or damaged 11 trees at Petersen Park in Eugene over the weekend, targeting young trees that volunteers planted during an MLK Day community event in 2023.
Eugene Parks and Open Space officials said the damage was discovered after community members reported it. Some of the trees were cut down completely, while others were severely damaged but remain standing and may survive. Staff believe the vandals used a saw and possibly an axe.
Joe Waksmundski, volunteer coordinator for Eugene Parks and Open Space, said the trees were among 130 planted by volunteers during the 2023 MLK Day event.
