Vandals take out Xtra Vancouver newspaper boxes

Wondering where your Xtra went over the holidays? Turns out a vandal systematically took out 12 (some reports say 14) boxes around town. The box in front of my building was emptied right after the Dec 15 issue came out (which featured a photo of two mostly naked men kissing). No Funcouver, you constantly confound me.

Here’s an article on xtra.ca

Here’s an article from the Vancouver Sun.

And here’s an article from Queerty (yes, it’s an international news item).

And from Towleroad.

Do a search on Google…this has made news everywhere. The spotlight is on. If you have any information regarding the vandalism, please contact the VPD.
