Child was cited and released for Damage to Property.

Details: "We got bored and started throwing rocks, because there is nothing better to do," said one of two 12-year old suspects after both were caught last week throwing rocks through windows of parked vehicles. The secure Beld St. lot on which they are located is owned by Schmidt's Towing, and employees said the vandalism has been an ongoing problem.

The suspects admitted they had been throwing baseball size rocks, from an elevated railroad tracks, one to two times a month since sometime this past summer.
