Chicago Fire Hydrants Destroyed
The level of destruction to Chicago Fire Hydrants has increased considerably lately. Now the Fire Hydrants are chopped up with large gas powered saws. After the hydrant is wrecked this bad, it cannot be used to put out fires. The City of Chicago Department of Water Management and Chicago Police need to put a stop to this before someone dies in a fire. This is a felony act and costs Taxpayers millions.

From your picture, it doesn't seem like this hydrant is damaged beyond usefulness.
What is wrong with it, that makes it of no use?
(Response) I would like to meet you at that site and explain the situation. Hopefully on a warm summer night.

We have major problems with the conditions of Chicago's Fire Hydrants.
