THE Glasshouse Little Athletics canteen was reported broken into on January 30, causing the food inside the fridges to go rotten, leaving volunteers no choice but to throw out the appliances.
A Queensland Police spokesperson said the break in at Skippy Park, Landsborough, where the canteen is, is still being investigated and detailed the damages to GC&M News.
“Police found the door handle and the power box had been damaged. This caused the building to lose power and all the food in the fridges to spoil,” the spokesperson said.
“Some minor items also appear to be stolen.”
Glasshouse Little Athletics publicity officer, Lewis Kwarcianyi, said the incident is unfortunate for the group as they will now have to replace the fridges, and may not be able to open the canteen for weeks.
