Kim Dobranski, the Warriors owner, said that in addition to the damage, multiple other signs have been stolen in the months since the teams鈥 new ownership.
鈥淲e really didn鈥檛 think much of it when the sandwich board game signs were slowly going missing,鈥 said Dobranski. 鈥淲ith two of our big signs getting covered with paint, it seems like there someone who鈥檚 not happy with the program, but this is only hurting the community.鈥

The Warriors franchise was in danger of being relocated in the weeks leading up to the season. When Dobranski took over, there were a few changes made.
鈥淚 wouldn鈥檛 think of any fans (of other teams) would go this far. But we did get Facebook comments after the big changes. The vandalizing is not going to change our operations, and we don鈥檛 want it to get out of hand, but it it escalates any further, we will involve the RCMP,鈥 said Dobranski.
After almost two weeks off for holidays, the Warriors will return to home ice on Jan. 5.
