Saint John police say a case of mischief at a popular city park could have resulted in serious injuries.
Police say a cyclist riding on a trail in Rockwood Park struck a thin wire suspended at head level across the trail.
The incident happened sometime between 11:30 a.m. and noon on Saturday, according to police.
“The cyclist was wearing a helmet with a face guard and, therefore, was not injured,” police said in a news release Tuesday.
“Police are concerned that this act of mischief could have resulted in serious injury had the level of protective equipment not been worn by the cyclist.”
