CHARLESTON, SC (WCSC)- A Charleston man is offering a reward for information leading to the arrest of a vandal who destroyed a $20,000 antique fountain in his front yard.

David Skinner said his Radcliffe Street home is a target because it is just a block away from some of the King Street bars.

"Trash, people urinating in the yard, constantly ripping pickets off of our fence," Skinner said. "I don't believe we would have gotten number one tourist destination if the world could see what happens two o'clock in the morning in Charleston."

Early Saturday morning, Skinner said vandals went too far and destroyed an antique fountain in the front yard.

"Retailed for around twenty grand in my antique shop and it's over there broken in a million pieces," he said.

What the culprit apparently didn't know is that Skinner has surveillance cameras.

Skinner believes the cameras show the guy who damaged the fountain leaving after the crime.

Looks like the dry days are over as showers and storms are back in the forecast for today all the way through the end of the week. The humidity has returned as well and Monday is starting cloudy, warm and sticky with temps in the upper 70s. Highs today will make it to the mid to upper 80s with an 80% chance of thunderstorms around at just about any time. Rain could be heavy at times.

Showers and storms should diminish this evening after the sun goes down but the pattern will repeat again tomorrow!
