  • I hope they find the idiots who put others at risk. They need to be plonked in jail and forgotten about.

  • This is ridiculous! I really thought we were past all this craziness! Why do people feel the need to do this? It just makes it so there’s less fruit available for everyone, not to mention how dangerous it is!

  • This is ridiculous and dangerous and harmful. Who would do this and why? It’s criminal and not acceptable. I don’t understand the mentality of someone who would do this.

  • Absolutely disgusting, we need to find the culprits and punish them accordingly


    • Someone must know something and hopefully they share whatever they know with authorities. This has to be stopped and I agree people need to be punished.

  • I hope this idiocy stops soon.


    • I agree. It’s wasteful with all that fruit being thrown away and not bought, and someone may actually be very seriously hurt!
