There’s a very stately looking white oak tree in Bolton’s Fountainbridge Park, which someone apparently took an axe to.
Local resident Terry Zuwa wants to know why.
The tree, which he estimated is between 300 and 400 years-old, has survived at least three lightning strikes over the years, remaining in good health.
He figured the attack took place sometime last Thursday night.
“That makes me so angry. There’s only a handful of these trees left in Ontario.”
Zuwa said he was ready to finance a reward to find out who’s responsible for this, adding people can call Crime Stoppers with information.
