Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Syracuse police put a stop to a group of four juveniles who were allegedly involved in a vandalism spree.
The suspects were found Monday setting fires in an empty Palm Drive, Syracuse, lot and were taken to the police department, where they were questioned.
During questioning, police learned the juveniles were responsible for 20 vandalism incidents in Syracuse and at least 10 others in Kosciusko County, amounting to more than $10,000 in damage.
Damage reports consisted of tires cut; graffitti on homes, cars and stop signs; urinating inside vehicles; and other types of vandalism.
The group responsible included a 14-year-old girl and three 16-year-old boys.
Syracuse Police Department declined to release the names of the juveniles.
All were released to their parents and charges have been forwarded to the Kosciusko County Prosecutor's Office.
