A Bowdoin College van believed to have been stolen Sunday morning was responsible for damage at the Mere Creek Golf Club’s course.

Brunswick police are looking for help identifying a suspect in the matter, characterized as aggravated criminal mischief in a Facebook post by the department. Police posted photos and a video of a “person of interest,” noting that the individual may have been walking or hitchhiking on Route 123 in Harpswell in the area of High Head Road at around 5 a.m.

According to Brunswick Police Cmdr. Mark Waltz, the 2008 Ford Econoline van was believed to have been taken from Bowdoin property sometime between 2-5 a.m. Sunday. He declined to release the exact address from which the vehicle was taken.
