Police took action against the perpetrator, who was arrested. The 21-year-old was charged with property damage. Committing this offense is punishable by up to 5 years in prison.

Police remind the public that anger, jealousy, or a sense of grievance do not justify aggression or the destruction of someone else’s property. A moment of uncontrolled emotion can have consequences far more serious than the conflict itself—including financial and criminal consequences.
