OREM, Utah -- A Utah vandal has decided to make things right 25 years later.
The City of Orem received a letter on Monday with $500 cash explaining the sender had vandalized bathrooms at a local park in 1990.
The letter stated:
Reed Price, the maintenance division manager for the City’s Public Work’s department, was the first to see the letter.
"As I read through the letter, I was touched by the heartfelt apology from someone who had been anguishing for nearly 25 years over what has been a long-since-forgotten event," Price said. "I hope they feel peace for making proper amends."
Price said he was even more surprised to find $500 for the repairs inside. He said the money will be the first contribution to the city's all-abilities playground.
