BOSTON (AP) — A Boston Garden official says a fan’s vandalism inside a bathroom was an “isolated incident” and asks people to call police if they have information.

In an episode seen on an internet video, a woman in a Milan Lucic Boston Bruins T-shirt kicks a hole in a column in the bathroom, then falls down. Her face is clearly seen.

On Friday, the Bruins’ released a marketing video titled “Never Disrespect the Garden,” in which a bear spackles over the hole in the column.

TD Garden’s senior vice president and general manager, Hugh Lombardi, said the arena “is proud and fortunate to have a respectful fan base” and the incident “is not typical or representative.”

Bruins spokesman Matt Chmura said Thursday building officials found the damage after Saturday night’s game with the St. Louis Blues.

Lombardi said fans can call the Garden’s safety hotline to report disturbances.
