According to a case report, the vandalism was discovered around 12:45 p.m. on April 29 by a family member of a church official. The church was reportedly locked since 10 p.m. on April 28. Upon responding, officials observed damage throughout several areas of the meetinghouse, including an overturned piano, a broken glass panel, broken pipes, and more.



“Inside the chapel at the front of the podium area, the ground was littered with plastic pieces,” the case report reads. “Upon a closer look, it appeared the pieces were keys to the organ that had been broken off.”
Officials also reported damage to the women’s bathroom and nursing area, with several broken pipes observed. Numerous sinks were left running, leading to water running onto the ground and carpet being “sopping wet,” the case report said.
The case report also indicates that there was damage in the boiler room and control boxes.
Officials spoke to security officials with the Missionary Training Center, which has a security camera facing the south end of the church building.
Officials said the total monetary amount of damage was not immediately known, but Provo PD estimated that the vandalism caused thousands of dollars in damage.
“At this time there are no known suspects,” the case report reads.
There is no further information at this time.
