On November 7th, 2017, several lights were damaged at the Veterans Memorial in Schnelker Park located in the 900 block of Park Ave in New Haven. The lights had apparently been smashed by a large rock and had to be replaced. The cost of the damage to the lights was estimated to be over $1,000. A name of one of the suspects was later given to a school official at the New Haven Middle School and two students were asked about the incident. The students admitted to breaking the lights with a large rock. Both students were charged with criminal mischief and taken to the Allen County Juvenile Center in Fort Wayne, IN.
