Youths arrested over vandalism
Seven youths have been arrested in connection with some vandalism to doors and fences in Westpark.
RCMP say they arrested the youths Sunday evening, Sept. 29. Area residents helped police locate the suspects in a nearby parking lot.
The seven were released to their parents and have all entered into the Restorative Justice Process, rather than regular court.
RCMP say fence and door kicking have been identified as a social media trend, where youths record the mischief in progress and upload it to popular social media applications.
Police urge the public to report any crime in progress to the local RCMP detachment.
