The University Police Department (UPD) is investigating incidents of vandalism around campus that occurred last night. UPD and Facilities staff estimate the cost of the damage to be between $20,000 and $30,000, university spokesperson Matt Lazier said.
There was damage to the large umbrellas outside Subway and a car parked nearby, as well as several windows throughout the core of campus, including Sandwich Factory, the Cal Poly University Store and Engineering East (building 20).
A maintenance worker who reported to work at 4:30 this morning discovered the damage and reported it to UPD.
The person or people responsible were throwing large rocks and broke the windows, Lazier said. But no information regarding suspects or motive has been released.
