An Orange County couple is sharing their frustrations with what they say is ongoing trespassing on their property.
Gloria and Shamal Tatum say ATV riders have come through their property on Lower Road in Westtown almost on a weekly basis for years.
They say the riders ignore surveillance cameras and trespassing signs and that they vandalize wire fences and metal gates to get in.
"We should feel safe at home. We should not feel that we are annoying people by trying to protect our property, our home," says Gloria Tatum.
The couple, who are retired from the NYPD, say state police and the town have tried to help but that because riders typically come through at night, no one has been caught.
