The Eagan Police Department is looking for a suspect or suspects responsible for vandalism that caused $7,000 of damage to road signs across the city.

In April and November 2012, police say a large number of street signs were damaged with paint or covered with duct tape—most of which had to be replaced. The vandalism occurred throughout the city, but most of the damage was concentrated along the areas of Wescott Road, Elrene Road and Dodd Boulevard, police say.
