Statement from Narrabri Shire Council Mayor Darrell Tiemens
“I was very disappointed and disheartened to see the awful act of vandalism committed overnight at the Wee Waa Multi-Purpose Courts.
“The vandalism committed at our wonderful new Wee Waa courts facility was in itself bad enough, but the shocking antisemitic and racist slurs are completely abhorrent.
“These slurs have been burnt into the surface of the courts by the perpetrators.
“This kind of hate goes against our values as a welcoming community, of which so many of our residents contribute enormously to making our Shire such a wonderful place to live.
“Council is working with the police to get to the bottom of this heinous act.
“As a result of this vandalism, the Wee Waa Multi-Purpose Courts remain closed while Council staff actively work to repair the damage.
“We appreciate the Wee Waa community’s patience while the courts are repaired and will keep the community updated regarding its re-opening.”
