Vandals Damage 60 Vehicles, Including School Buses

The Desert News reported that Utah police detained two suspects for allegedly using a baseball bat to break windows on more than 60 vehicles, including school buses.

John David Stickney, 18, and a 17-year-old boy were arrested for investigation of criminal mischief, a crime that could be charged as a second-degree felony due to the total damage estimate.

The juvenile, whose name was not released by police, was booked into the Castle Valley Youth Detention facility.

“The primary target of the vandals was sideview mirrors of vehicles parked on the street. One suspect drove down the street while the other suspect wielded a bat, breaking the mirrors as they drove by,” according to Price police.

Included in that vandalism were two buses from Pinnacle Charter School that had a total of 28 windows broken, and one bus from the Carbon School District that sustained 10 broken windows, including both panels of the front windshield, police stated.
