Residents across the Bay Area are waking up to torn up yards, all thanks to some furry creatures in the night.
Courtney Kress is one of them.
“It was the worst part of my day. I would go outside and the whole yard would be totally wrecked.”
The mystery mess left at her Outer Richmond backyard started about a month ago. Photos show squares of sod overturned and haphazardly strewn about, as if a tornado ripped through.
“We had just moved in and we had fixed up the whole yard and put a lot of work into it, we were so happy!” she beamed.

LGA airport causes a stir when raccoon falls from the ceiling.
That happy transformation from overgrown brush to green and lush though, was short-lived. All thanks to some special guests.
You can see multiple raccoons playing, fighting and trotting about in cell phone video taken by Courtney. She and her fiancĂ© can be heard exclaiming, “We provided this for them!”
The raccoons, according to experts, were after the grubs and worms to eat underneath the sod. After it was put back, the sheets of grass would get ripped up over and over again.
