SENECA COUNTY -- Two juvenile offenders are accused of breaking into the cafeteria at the Hillside Children's Center, damaging property, urinating and defecating on the floor.
Seneca County Sheriff's deputies say the two left the housing dormitory without permission on November 9.
While on campus unsupervised, they broke into the campus cafeteria and damaged several items. They also threw food and condiments around the kitchen area and urinated and defecated in the kitchen. Then, they stole a case of ice cream bars and left the building with knives and a cell phone from the kitchen area.
The two are also accused of cutting walls to get into the campus green house, where they poured paint on the floor and pried open drawers and cabinets. After throwing the contents of the cabinets and drawers around the greenhouse, they took off and punctured a campus vehicle tire and hid the cell phone and knives around the campus.
The two are charged with burglary, criminal mischief and petit larceny. They were issued juvenile appearance tickets and are scheduled to appear in Seneca County Family Court at a later date. Their names are not being released due to their age.
