Karen Natho, founder of the Brock University Niagara Penguins, spoke with 610CKTB's Shelby Knox.
Natho says when they showed up for indoor handcycling class at the at the Port Weller Community Centre last night they realized two side doors had been broken in to.
There was more than $22,000 worth of stolen and damaged equipment, including bikes, one racing chair, two trainers, and a stereo.
