A group of four boys, all aged 14 years old, were apprehended today, for causing mischief by throwing stones at passing vehicles, causing damage and distress. The main victim was a 27 year old motorist called Natthaphong, who was transporting young boxers from Trang province for a competition. The incident occurred on the Manohra bypass road, heading towards the city centre in Phatthalung province.

 

The boys were said to be lurking near the entrance of a housing estate as the vehicles passed by. They then proceeded to hurl stones at the vehicles causing the windshield of Natthaphong’s Toyota Vigo to shatter. The boys then fled into the housing estate. When asked why they had committed such an act, the boys simply claimed they had “nothing to do.”

 

Natthaphong, along with his team of boxers, immediately reported the incident to the police and, together with residents, they initiated a search within the housing estate. After nearly an hour, two of the boys were found hiding in one of the rental houses and another was found in a nearby forest. However, the fourth boy remains at large.

All the bad stuff that young people seem to be doing, comes from YouTube....

Boys have been boys long before YouTube. Ever watch "The Little Rascals"? I bet even you took off your bowtie once in a while and have a story to tell.

I interpret that reply as it is okay for the boys to be throwing rocks at speeding cars. I don't think it is.

When I was younger I very soon learnt to never say "I had nothing to do"
