Wellesley Police investigate vandalism at recently purchased Arden Rd. home

April 9, 2026 by Deborah Brown Leave a Comment

The Wellesley Police Department is investigating an act of vandalism targeting a residence on Arden Road. On Wednesday morning, officers responded to a call regarding 20 Arden Road and found that the five-bedroom home overlooking Beebe Meadow, in the Dana Hall area of town, had been defaced.

According to police reports, the property—which was recently acquired by a new homeowner—suffered physical damage including a broken glass slider. In addition to the structural damage, the vandals spray painted the rear exterior of the white house.

A resident provided a photograph of the damage to Swellesley, however, the specific words spray-painted onto the structure were not legible. Police have not released information regarding potential suspects, or a description of the graffiti.

Anyone with information regarding the incident or suspicious activity in the Arden Road area on Tuesday night or Wednesday morning should contact the Wellesley Police at 781-235-1212.
