Castletown commissioners say there's no vandalism in a skate park in the town - and are asking people to stop wrongly accusing children.
In a post on Facebook, the local authority says someone reported vandalism in Poulsom Park.
But after its staff investigated they discovered the damage is just wear and tear on the concrete surfaces.
The board says it's important not to make unfounded accusations against young people.
