PENNSVILLE TWP.

— Four Delaware juveniles had their car vandalized while being processed on charges related to numerous graffiti incidents in the township, police said recently.

Police arrested the juveniles here on July 12 for spray painting graffiti on several area properties, according to authorities.

Officers stopped a suspicious vehicle in the Pennsville Shopping Center and found it occupied by four males, all from Delaware, that appeared to be lost.

Prior to the stop, officers had responded to four different locations in Pennsville that had been spray painted, police said.

Further interview of the males found that they were in possession of evidence of the offense, according to police.

The locations painted were 12 Meadow Road (Penn Terrace apartments, welcome sign), 251 N. Broadway (Old Premier Cinema), 48 N. Broadway (Mazzuca Eye Care), and 24 N. Broadway (Patriot Construction), police said.

All the males were arrested around 2 a.m., and their vehicle was secured at the shopping center.

Police transported the juveniles to police headquarters, where they were formally charged in connection with the graffiti incidents, then released to their parents/guardians pending juvenile court.

Upon returning to their vehicle, they discovered all the windows had been smashed out and there were dents all over the vehicle, police said.

There are no suspects in the damage at this time.
