Juveniles Detained after Vandalizing Mailboxes

NEW ALBANY, Miss ( WCBI) – Three boys ages, 14 and 15, went through the Jericho and Alpine communities destroying mailboxes.

Union County Sheriff Jimmy Edwards told the Daily Journal that the juveniles knocked boxes off posts and even pulled boxes up out of the ground dragging them down roads. Around 75 mailboxes were destroyed after the spree was over.

All three boys were detained and transported to the Lee County Juvenile Detention Center.

The Union County Sheriff’s office is asking people to contact the office with estimates of what it will cost to replace or repair damage in order to determine restitution.
