Le Roy police nab two teen boys for alleged criminal mischief -- throwing rocks, breaking a window, fleeing on bicycles

By Billie Owens

Le Roy Police officers have detained two white males estimated to be about 18 years old in connection with a criminal mischief complaint about a half hour ago. A caller reported that two teenaged boys on BMX-style bikes rode by a business on Myrtle Main Street and threw rocks, which broke a window. The suspects were apprehended on Main Street within minutes and are said to be well known to local law enforcement. Authorities have contacted a representative of Municipal Solutions, a management consulting service in the Village, to make the person aware of damages. One of the youths is wanted by Attica PD, which has been contacted and a meeting is being arranged for them to pick up that person.

UPDATE AND CLARIFICATION: The two teens were juveniles and will not be charged criminally.  The incident occurred on Main Street, not Myrtle. There was no warrant and there was no meet up with Attica PD.

"white males" why was their race mentioned? I could understand such a description if the police were looking for them but the "white" 18 year olds were already detained. just wondering if the suspects were non-white would the article state such.

Things happen quickly over the scanner. When I began writing the post, they were still at large. By the time I finished, they had been detained and I forgot to go back and delete the descriptive reference - their race. Nothing intentional. All apologies.
