McDaniel Park Vandal Found to Be Already in Police Custody

Springfield Police have identified the man who vandalized a victim’s car in McDaniel Park last weekend— Jon Routh, the same man who drove his car into officer Mark Priebe on Tuesday.

Shortly after Routh’s face was broadcast on local television, witnesses came forward saying they had seen him at McDaniel Park.

Authorities say Routh lived in his SUV in the park for a while and smeared feces on the victim’s car and deflated the tires because he thought it belonged to a man he knew.

He did not know the vehicle was owned by Carolyne Moss.

Routh faces charges for the vandalism as well as his assault of officer Priebe.
