Don't mess with a Long Island man's lawn.⁠
⁠
Police are looking for a lawn vandal in North Massapequa who hit the same yard twice, causing thousands of dollars in damage. ⁠
⁠
According to the homeowner, it's at least third time it has happened. He has no idea why it keeps happening, but he said he's "afraid this guy might try to do something worse than this."⁠
⁠
He also had a clear message for the vandal.⁠
⁠
"None of the neighbors like him. He threatens people. He goes around threatening people. Meanwhile, I could smack this guy and put him in a hospital. But I would never do that, because it's against the law," he said.⁠
