Delray Beach: Protest signs vandalized

Police were called last month when vandals destroyed about 60 signs that coastal residents had placed in their yards to protest transient housing in their neighborhoods.
About 35 signs were destroyed or stolen March 28 from Seaspray Avenue and two neighboring steets. Residents replaced them, only to have 25 new signs taken three nights later.
“We want to know who is behind not wanting us to express our right to free speech,” Seaspray resident Ray Jones said.
Police dusted for fingerprints but had no immediate suspects.
“We’ll catch who is doing this,” another resident, Jack Barrette, vowed. “We’re all watching.”
