Skateboarders reported in Main Street garages

The Park City Police Department last week received two complaints about skateboarders in underground garages on Main Street as they seek a dry place to practice their moves in the winter.

On Thursday, Jan. 7 at 6:52 a.m., kids were reportedly seen skateboarding in an underground garage on the 800 block of Main Street. They refused to leave, the police were told.
