Teens Likely To Face Charges In Westmoreland Co. Vandalism Spree

GREENSBURG (KDKA) -- State police sources say criminal charges are likely against four or five teenagers involved in a wave of vandalism in Westmoreland County this past weekend.

A car was stopped overnight and state police say they linked the teenagers inside to the vandalism spree.

Scores of cars, homes and business had their windows shot out by a BB gun in the Unity, Hempfield and Youngwood areas.

One man had the rear window of his SUV shot out. He said the hope the juveniles don't get off scot free.

Some of the damage occurred in the Fort Allen section of Hempfield Township, a neighborhood still recovering after a tornado touched down March.

Greensburg state police are urging people who had damage to call them.
