Juveniles in custody after BB gun shootings
Four boys were taken into custody in Chesterfield County over the weekend after businesses sustained as much as $6,000 in damages from windows broken by shots from a BB gun.
Chesterfield police said residents alerted them about the vandalism Saturday night in the area of the 7100 block of Hull Street Road. Four boys in their early teens were taken into custody.
Charges are pending.
The damage occurred at Wilkinson Florist, Manchester Medical Center, and to a truck belonging to Fresh to Frozen.

dc,
I doubt it was the same juveniles. I heard the ones from this past weekend were 12 to 14 years old. Not likely driving around in a car.
I hope the courts take this very seriously. These juveniles are destroying personal property now. If they get away with a slap on the wrist they most like will offend again to a larger scale. Next it may be a person and/or people they take a shot at. They could become the next “Snipers” and we all know how that turned out.
I wonder if these were the same boys that I saw shoot out my, and my neighbors car windows a few months back, in a silver sedan. In all, they damaged 7 cars.
