A British police department in the heart of crop circle country has raised concerns about the mysterious formations that appear in the area every summer. Wiltshire Police reportedly issued a statement addressing the phenomenon that has become somewhat synonymous with the county. "While they might look impressive, creating a crop circle without the landowner's permission is criminal damage," they noted, stressing that "these acts can cause serious short and long-term damage to crops and fields and may also attract further illegal activity." To that end, the department noted that the appearance of a crop formation is often followed by trespassers, prohibited deployment of drones, and even theft by ne'er-do-wells drawn to the area.'
