Squirrel $300k damage to a new Fort Wayne, Indiana community center is quite unbelievable. The rebellious rodent amazingly infiltrated the electrical system of the center which is scheduled to open in June, causing the astonishing story of a squirrel $300k damage.
For such a small creature, the damage caused by the squirrel is huge. Having penetrated the electrical system of the newly renovated athletics complex at McMillen Park on April 1st, the squirrel $300k damage caused a power surge that destroyed three new HVAC systems. It also damaged parts of the boiler system, and unfortunately, the animal died.
There are squirrels native to Indiana, which most probably include the type of squirrel that caused the 300,000 dollars worth of damages to the athletics complex. Squirrels native to Indiana include the fox squirrel, the Franklin's ground squirrel, the southern fly squirrel, the American gray squirrel, the red squirrel, and the thirteen-lined ground squirrel. However, there is still no confirmation as to the squirrel type causing the squirrel $300k damage.
Parks Director Al Moll said that the squirrel $300k damage will be covered by insurance, minus the department's $50,000 deductible. Parks Department spokesman Steve McDaniel also said in a statement that the company that built the HVAC systems is already in a rush to replace it so June 7 opening can push through.
The squirrel $300k damage structure and now under renovation was originally the McMillen Ice Arena. It closed in 2009 and now a $1.9 million project is converting the it into a community center hosting basketball, an indoor track and other activities. Previous ice rinks will now be home to basketball courts and indoor soccer fields.
Squirrel $300k damage to the new community center proves that anything could happen, and nothing can prevent forces of nature from causing the unexpected. The entire project is reportedly estimated at roughly $4.5 million.
