Several mailboxes vandalized, suspects facing charges

Posted at 1:31 pm June 9, 2014

Information from WYSH Radio

Charges are pending against two juveniles and an adult for vandalizing mailboxes in Anderson County.

Over several days last week, a number of mailboxes were vandalized on East Wolf Valley Road, Davidson Hollow Road, Chestnut Ridge Road, and Heiskell Road.

Residents on Thursday were able to provide deputies with a description of the suspect vehicle, which was pulled over later that night. Two juveniles and an adult were identified as the suspects in the vandalism, and charges against all three are pending.

Initially, despite seeing several mailboxes vandalized, Anderson County Sheriff’s Department deputies said only a couple of reports had been filed and asked last week for anyone whose mailbox was damaged in that area to call them and file a report so they can file all the charges at one time. Over the weekend, area residents complied with that request and now, 14 complaints have been filed with the ACSD.

WYSH will provide more information when formal charges have been filed.

Information in this story brought to you through an agreement between Oak Ridge Today and WYSH. See more local news headlines on the WYSH website at http://www.wyshradio.com/local_news.html.
