RCMP arrested four youths in connection to a spate of vandalism in Cole Harbour, N.S.

Police said between April 20 and May 26, Mounties received over twenty reports of mischief to 18 vehicles and three homes.

According to RCMP, rocks and pellet guns were used to break windows, slash tired and break into vehicles.

This past week, officers found and arrested three Cole Harbour male youths and one Westphal male youth.
