Police call it a pure vandalism.
"We haven't seen this before in Parker. I haven't heard of any case like this where somebody would just go along in a park that's used by thousands of people each year and just randomly cut down 22 trees," Officer Dawn Cashman with Parker police said.

Police say there are no tracks, tools or motive.
