Vermont State Police are investigating a case of maple vandalism.
Someone used an ax to cut holes into eight barrels of maple syrup causing about 300 gallons to leak onto the floor of the sugar house where it was being stored.
Cindy Mayer tells the Burlington Free Press there is nearly a season's worth of syrup on the floor of their sugarhouse.
Alan Mayer of Mayer Maple Products told police an additional 12 gallons of syrup was stolen sometime between Monday evening and Tuesday evening.
The products were being prepared for an upcoming craft fair.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the state police.
