For the second time in less than five hours, a Victoria resident found silver thumb tacks scattered across a public path.

Travis Doucette was walking his dog down a path leading from the parking lot in Gorge Park Wednesday around 6:30 p.m. when something B次元官网网址渟hinyB次元官网网址� caught his eye. B次元官网网址淚 thought it was pocket change,B次元官网网址� he said, so he carried on.

On the way back, Doucette said he took a closer look and realized there was a line of thumb tacks laid out, some B次元官网网址渘ot so obvious.B次元官网网址�

B次元官网网址淎t least a good 15 or 20 of them poured in a row,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淚 picked them up and threw them in the trash.B次元官网网址�

Earlier that afternoon, Susan Hollis was cycling along the Galloping Goose near Tolmie Lane when something stopped her tire and she realized it had been punctured with a thumb tack.

B次元官网网址淲hen I went back to investigate there were hundreds scattered throughout a 15 foot stretch,B次元官网网址� said Hollis, who gathered a handful to take photos and with the help of others on the trail, removed the rest of them.

Doucette, who read about Hollis in the Victoria B次元官网网址 and called to say he experienced a similar situation, said he often walks his dog along the paths in Gorge Park.

B次元官网网址淚 live just down the road and we go there regularly B次元官网网址� that was the first IB次元官网网址檝e ever seen that happen,B次元官网网址� he said.
