This week Canton Police Department noticed damage to one of their SMART trailers. The trailer was parked on Kingsbridge, north of Emerson when it was vandalized. SMART trailers are used around Canton to display the speed of vehicles as they pass by.

Special Services Lieutenant Bob Kerr stated, "We are disappointed about the damage to the equipment, which is used for the community's benefit. Residents rely on the speed trailers to help alert motorists to their speed, especially in residential neighborhoods. The speed trailers are an effective tool in helping to slow drivers traveling through neighborhoods where speeding is a common complaint with residents."

Anyone with information on the damaged trailer is asked to contact the Canton Police Department at 734/394-5400.
