PADRE ISLAND, Tx \u2014 <\/p>\n

Corpus Christi Police and the Nueces County Sheriff’s Department are looking for several people who vandalized Bob Hall Pier overnight.<\/p>\n

According to Nueces County Director of Coastal Parks Scott Cross, around 11 a.m., several contractors began sending him text messages letting him know about the vandalism.<\/p>\n

“Anything that wasn’t bolted down was thrown in the water,” Cross said.<\/p>\n

Cross said a generator, shop fans, tools, tables, chairs and even the project’s blueprints were thrown in the water.<\/p>\n
