Jackson police say four vandalized city park, pool, tire shop

Jackson police say they've solved Sunday night's string of vandalism and have arrested four teenage boys.

Lt. Chris Mouser said the four broke a sink and damaged bleachers at Jackson City Park, broke two car windows and a store front window at Plaza Tire Service and damaged the city pool's floor surface by throwing heavy items from the deck into the water.

Charles L. Snyder, 17, was charged Tuesday with one count of trespassing, three counts of property damage and three counts of tampering. His bond was set at $5,000 and he is currently in custody at Cape Girardeau County Jail. Snyder was previously sentenced June 23 to 30 days in county jail for unrelated charges of trespassing and stealing. He received credit for time served.

An 18-year-old man was released shortly after his arrest and charges are pending review by the prosecutor's office, Mouser said. The two younger boys, ages 13 and 14, were referred to the county juvenile office for property damage and trespassing.
