While some people in the midstate were shoveling snow on Monday, state police in two counties were busy dealing with a pair of snow-based obscenity complaints.

In Dauphin County, troopers were called to a home along the 300 block of West Broad Street in Elizabethville just before 1 p.m.

According to police, Michael Allan Shadle, 18, and an unidentified 17-year-old boy "shoveled an obscene object in the snow, offending neighbors."

Police did not say what the object in question was. An unidentified 61-year-old man is listed as the victim in the press release from the police.

Both Shadle and the teen were charged with disorderly conduct, police said.

In Perry County, troopers were called the 6900 block of Spring Road in Carroll Township at about 5 p.m.

Wendi Mullen, 64, was charged with disorderly conduct after police said she "wrote obscenities in the snow with spray paint," according to a news release.

Police did not say what Mullen wrote in the snow.

Further information was not immediately available.
