Seaside Heights is seeking the public\u2019s help in tracking down a group of young men who were photographed vandalizing boardwalk equipment on the Seaside Heights boardwalk over the weekend.<\/p>\n

The men were seen scribbling some sort of writing with a Sharpie-style marker on garbage cans and other new pieces of equipment that include newly-decorative photos of town.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter committing their crime, they were observed walking toward Seaside Park,\u201d Borough Administrator Christopher Vaz posted along with security photos. Anyone who recognizes the men is urged to contact administrator@seaside-heightsnj.org with pertinent information, which will be forwarded to detectives.<\/p>\n

The offense appears to be a third degree crime in New Jersey, Vaz said.<\/p>\n
