Why Do These Idiots Have To Attack Christmas Trees?

A Philadelphia neighborhood is searching for a real-life Grinch after someone vandalized the community Christmas tree a day after the lighting ceremony.

"It's a shame," said Louis Izzi.

"It was quick," Carley Schwab said talking to a customer at I Knead Coffee. "I mean kids hang out at the park constantly."

Workers say that someone cut the lights on the tree at the Bridesburg Recreation Center on Richmond Street sometime after dark on Sunday.

"It's just ridiculous because it's a small group, of we think middle school ages like 13-15 in there somewhere, looking for something to do," said Jackie DeSanctis, better known as Miss Jackie to neighbors.

She's worked and volunteered at the rec center for decades.
