Juvenile Arrested In Hood River Vandalism Spree

Hood River Police arrested a juvenile male early Wednesday morning on charges resulting from 22 people reporting having their vehicles and property vandalized by graffiti.  Police Chief Neal Holste says gold spray paint was used on both vehicles and homes.  Holste says Safeway employees were the first to report vandalism to their vehicles, and officers later found several more vehicles with similar vandalism in the neighborhood south of the supermarket, while other victims contacted police later that morning with similar damage to their homes and cars.  Police estimate total damage at between $7,000 and $8,000.  The suspect was lodged at NORCOR’s juvenile facility in The Dalles where he is awaiting arraignment.  Holste says anyone who thinks they may have been a victim of this vandalism spree and has not yet reported it should call Hood River Police at 541-386-2121.
