HOQUIAM, Wash. (AP) — Police say a 10-year-old boy scratched and dented nearly 20 vehicles in an apartment parking lot in Hoquiam.

KXRO reports when officers arrived Wednesday frustrated residents were confronting the boy and his stepmother.

Police say the boy admitted using a rock to scratch words and faces on the cars and kicking the dents. Police determined he knew the difference between right and wrong then booked him into the Juvenile Detention Center for investigation of malicious mischief.
