There appears to be a scrooge in the Allandale Villas in Duval. Last year, at least 2 residents had their Christmas lights cut, and it has just happened again tonight. Someone seems to be walking around with wire cutters and ruining our holiday displays. Could this really be happening in The Villages??

Please be on the lookout for anyone acting suspicious.

Thanks.

How sad. Hope they catch the guy (maybe time for some videos to be set up by the lights?).

That is just awful to hear. Wire cutters and electric current seems like a risky mix. Hope if they do it again they get a good jolt and deterrent to STOP.

That is horrible. I hope they find them

If this only happens in the villas. Call a meeting to discuss this. The one who does not show is the traitor. Then call Michael Corleone. He has experience with traitors.

I wouldn't want to be that perp if the wrong person caught them red handed.
It could well be "lights out" for them... too!

is this not classed as Criminal Damage??

Unbelievable!

That is totally sad. Just plain wrong. Hope they are caught.

They actually had the forethought to unplug the cord before cutting it. Premeditation for sure.

Don't throw away the damaged cord. CSI can match up the cut marks on the cord to the scissors or wire cutters.

I love this approach. Maybe because I am from NJ.

I would suspect someone does not like the lights shinning into their bedroom window. May be if you turned them off earlier it would solve the problem. Anyways, no excuse for damaging someone's property.

Surely, all this miserable little person has to do, is knock on your doors and ask for you to turn them off / down at a certain time!!
Or, plug them in, inside your home! That would slow the little worm down!!
I find this quite shocking!!

Based on what I have learned from comments in threads about road rage and stealing roses, the person who did this clearly has dementia.
