Stand Vandalized Near New Market in Maryland
A vandal attack damaged the Stauffer family produce stand on Md 144 near New Market. Watermelons and cantaloupes were rolled off the table into a ditch, some smashed, others left on the highway. Betty Stauffer reported missing melons and cucumbers, while Peggy Stauffer, confined to a wheelchair, tended to customers. Local law enforcement noted a prior near-miss by a patrol vehicle. The family, who also sells corn from a relative's farm, plans to move produce to a distant wagon at night to deter further theft. Maryland Medicaid budget concerns were also noted separately in the regional report.
