According to a message posted Thursday morning in a Slack channel by Victoria Crawley, Head of Operations at The Mill, multiple buildings including The Forge, The Mill, and The Kiln were vandalized overnight. Crawley confirmed that all staff and members are safe and that The Mill is working with the Bloomington Police Department to ensure ongoing safety.
At The Forge, several windows were shattered, including a high window near the top of the building. Workers were seen cleaning up the broken glass Thursday as construction managers surveyed the damage. A person at the site said one of the windows alone would cost at least $1,000 to replace, suggesting total repair costs could run into the thousands.
Across town, several Tesla Superchargers located outside the Fresh Thyme Market on Bloomington's west side were also vandalized. Foam was used to fill in the charging connectors — a tactic reminiscent of vandalism targeting downtown parking meters in Bloomington several years ago.
