SHERBROOKE, Que. — Two teens were nabbed by police after they managed to trash 21 Quebec provincial police cars in a parking lot early Wednesday.
Sherbrooke police driving by the lot around 1:30 a.m. spotted the 13-year-olds, who smashed windows and mirrors on the cruisers, ripped off windshield wipers and slashed tires. They also tried to burn one car.
Damages are estimated at between $5,000 and $10,000.
The cruisers were parked behind a company which was slated to install new equipment in them.
The teens were charged Wednesday with breaking and entering and mischief.
