BEDFORD — Chief John J. Bryfonski and the Bedford Police Department are asking the public to share surveillance or home security video as it investigates dozens of cases of vandalism that occurred last week.
On Thursday, Aug. 11, at about 7 a.m., Bedford Police received calls from multiple residents on Nashua Road, McIntosh Lane, Rosewell Drive, and Wallace Road reporting that their mailboxes had been damaged overnight.
During an initial investigation, responding officers learned that more than 30 mailboxes had been damaged on Hancock Drive, McIntosh Lane, Meadow Road, Nashua Road, North Amherst Road, Old Lantern Road, Oriole Drive, Rosewell Drive, and Wallace Road.
The Bedford Police Department is investigating jointly with the Merrimack Police Department, which responded to similar reports on Thursday morning.

Anyone with video footage or other information to aid in this investigation is asked to contact the Bedford Police Department at 603-472-5113.
