A neighborhood in The Woodlands was hit hard by Christmas decoration-vandals:
It all happened on the street that usually wins the coveted award for best holiday decorations in The Woodlands.
Despite the crime spree, residents of Timber Mill Street refuse to let the vandals steal their Christmas spirit.
Wolfgang Evans went all out with his light display, but it lost some of its sparkle early Wednesday morning when someone came by to say “bah humbug.”
“It was slashed open,” Evans said referring to a giant snowman in his yard. “I took hot glue, ran a bead of hot glue and just folded it over and glued it back together.”
Evans’s snowman wasn’t the only decoration deflated.
The same thing happened to another inflatable snowman across the street.
And even the “abonimable snowman” wasn’t spared the wrath of the vandals.
“It was heartbreaking,” said owner Kirsten Bubier who noticed something terribly wrong when she got home from the gym. “It didn’t occur to me at first. I wasn’t looking for damage. I’m driving home to get my kids home from school. And the arch in my driveway had fallen over and I couldn’t get in my driveway.”
The story notes that the residents have repaired their outdoor Christmas displays and for the third year in a row, the neighborhood won the title of “best decorated” in The Woodlands.” Take that, you Scrooges!
