"The year of the Vandal" in Amarillo continues.

With the arrest last week of four young men caught in possession of BB guns and with school starting many hoped the vandalism issue in Amarillo would subside.  Those hopes appear to have been too optimistic.

The latest area to be hit is Southwest Amarillo, specifically the area just west of Ridgecrest Elementary School on Dixon, Harmony, and Atkinson streets and a resident on 46th.

Vandals used red and black spray paint to mark windshields, fences, pavements, and more.  Many triple "K's" were painted and some of the graffiti was more obscene. Vehicle windows were also busted.

Police suspect juveniles in the crime but are currently searching for leads.  If you have any further information on this incident call Amarillo Crime Stoppers at 806-374-4400.
