The Cleveland Browns have had a part of their NFL field trashed by an alleged joyrider with a police investigation underway.
It comes after marks on the grass were found on Tuesday morning, with the organisations groundsmen now in a race against the clock to prepare the field for this Sunday's game, when the Browns welcome Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Cleveland's FirstEnergy Stadium, which is one of 16 stadiums in the NFL which uses grass rather than artificial turf, was found to have been vandalised on either Monday evening or in the early hours of Tuesday, with ring marks visibly left on the grass at centre-field just outside the numbers.
