SEATTLE - Nearly 50 metal spikes were mysteriously planted in the shallows of an urban lake popular with swimmers, alarming Seattle residents and leading to a police investigation.

"We're horrified, because we can't think of any reason anyone would have placed these except to hurt people," said Dewey Potter, a spokeswoman for the city's Parks Department. "We've never encountered anything like this. It's very bizarre."
Patrick Boltz was wading in Green Lake on Sunday with his wife and 18-month daughter when something cut his foot. He discovered a spike and yanked out 10 spikes in a matter of minutes. He then alerted the parks department.

This seems like the kind of thing PETA or ELF or one of the other eco-whacko groups would pull, especially given the area.
