Vandals destroy Rock Springs Middle School baseball field

Information is needed about the vandals who destroyed the sod and grass early Tuesday at Rock Springs Middle School at 3301 Rock Springs Road in Smyrna, a school resource officer said.

Baseball coach Keith Stephenson reported the baseball field was vandalized Tuesday, said SRO Ben Baldwin.

Video showed a driver drove around the gate at the bottom of the drive headed to the field, the SRO said. The driver drove through the locked chain link fence/gate to gain access to the field.

“Once on the field, it did donuts on the entire field, destroying the sold/grass,” Baldwin reported.

The SRO reviewed video and identified the vehicle as a full-sized, white, single-cab pickup truck with a four-wheel drive.

Smyrna Police Detective James Scott sent out information asking other officers to search for the truck.

People who have information about the truck’s owners are asked to call Smyrna Police at 615-459-6644 or Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office at 615-898-7770.
