WASHINGTON — Albert Clemons Sr. just wants the eggs to stop.
Since March 2014, this Euclid, Ohio, resident’s home has been pelted with eggs, and police are flummoxed as to who could be doing it. The eggs are shot at his front door and the detritus has actually destroyed the aluminum siding, and the paint on the front door, he and his family say.
The elderly resident — he’s 85 — has been living in the home for years and does not know why he has been targeted this way. The eggs have come nearly every day, at all hours, for a year, and police still don’t have any leads. The assailants have also thrown “apples, oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits and canned goods,” according to Fox 8 in Cleveland
The strange thing about it is, that the police have done numerous stake-outs in an attempt to capture the vandals, to no avail. It has made Clemons’ life “a nightmare,” he told reporters.
“We’re not going to let it go,” Euclid Police Lt. Mitch Houser told Cleveland.com. “We’ll continue to put effort into it until we figure something out.” Police are offering a $1,000 for any information leading to the mysterious egging attacks.
