Penis-shaped football field graffiti cancels games

BEDFORD, Mich., Sept. 15 (UPI) -- Officials with a Michigan school said vandals used grass killer to carve the image of male genitals into a football field, causing four games to be canceled.

Bedford Schools Superintendent Mark Kleinhans said landscapers are using sod to repair the estimated $15,000 to $20,000 worth of damage done to the Bedford High School football field by vandals who used grass killer to put a giant image of male genitalia on the field.

Kleinhans said four games have been canceled as a result of the vandalism and officials are hoping the situation will be corrected in time for the upcoming varsity homecoming game.

Police said they are seeking warrants against two teenage suspects accused of carrying out the vandalism with the help of a 50-year-old mother.
