The Junction City Police Department is reporting the arrest of three juveniles on alleged charges including 121 counts of Damage to Property and Conspiracy to commit damage to property.
According to the press release after developing a lead from a
patrol officer, two 17 year olds and a 16-year-old were arrested. After executing search warrants, four BB guns, BBs and air canisters were located and collected.
A preliminary estimate of total damage on these charges is around $30,000.
The Juveniles are being detained at the Juvenile Detention Center pending first appearance. Possible additional charges may be pending.
