Two golf carts were stolen for a joyride on the Island West Golf Club driving range overnight Sunday, according to a Beaufort County sheriff’s report released Wednesday.

Empty beer cans were found nearby.

The culprits probably scaled the fence, the report said. They drove the two carts through the wooden fence and onto the driving range, where they ran over flag poles and a golf bag holder.

At the end of the ride, they parked the carts near the hole in the fence.

One of the carts had front-end damage that will cost about $1,000 to repair, the report said. Other damage was estimated at $205.
