A warm spring day can bring visitors to Lake Michigan expecting to wiggle their toes in the sand, but someone is trying to ruin a day at the beach.
Thousands of glass shards were found spread across hundreds of yards of coastline at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. A park visitor first reported the glass-covered stretch of beach near the park's Good Harbor picnic area, said Tom Ulrich, the park's deputy superintendent. National Park Service rangers removed 2,500 pieces of glass from the beach during the first cleanup, he said.
No suspects were identified, and the incident is still under investigation. Rangers are hoping this time someone has more information.

Ulrich said park employees will take time from their regular duties and work with volunteers to continue the cleanup and count the number of glass shards found.
