Officials in San Clemente, California, dumped 37 tons of sand on a skate park to keep skaters from using it. The park, along with other city recreation facilities, was closed to promote social distancing but skaters ignored “no trespassing” signs and kept using the park. The nonprofit group that raised money to build the park says the city did not consult them before filling it with sand.
