Surveillance footage<\/a> reportedly showed the group rolling up in a red minivan before getting to work on the destruction and grabbing a few items on their way out. Not exactly a getaway car built for speed, but it apparently did the job.<\/p>\nHow the Case Came Together<\/p>\n
The 15-year-old girl now faces charges of criminal mischief and theft, and she wasn’t alone. Two more juveniles suspected of being involved were identified and tracked down by investigators shortly after.<\/p>\n
The last of the group, a 15-year-old boy, was taken into custody midweek, closing out what turned into a multi-day search for everyone involved.<\/p>\n
Cleaning Up the Mess<\/p>\n
For Abbott, the aftermath has meant more than just sweeping up broken glass. She’s had to restock coolers that were already fully stocked before the damage happened, essentially doing the same job twice in one week.<\/p>\n
She summed up the whole ordeal simply, saying it’s been an insane week of playing catch-up.<\/p>\n
A Business Leaning on Its Community<\/p>\n
Despite the setback, Abbott made a point of thanking the community for the support that poured in after news of the vandalism got out. It’s a reminder that even when a small business takes a hit, neighbors tend to show up when it counts.<\/p>\n
At the end of the day, this is a case that wrapped up fairly quickly thanks to some sharp-eyed identification, including from inside the family of one of the accused. And many are applauding the mom. On Facebook, many are calling her a “hero” and “parent of the year,” noting that this is how you get children to learn properly.<\/p>\n
A powerful comment wrote: “It’s tough, but they won’t learn if you turn a blind eye. I turned my son in, and he went to prison for 5 years. I don’t think he’d be alive now if he hadn’t gone to prison.”<\/p>\n
