The Front Royal Police Department has identified the three subjects involved with the vandalism that occurred in the early morning hours of June 9, 2018. The suspects spray painted graffiti in several different locations, disconnected power to a business and removed party banners from another. These three subjects were caught on video in various locations throughout Town. Screen captures of that video were posted on social media, which provided several leads resulting in the three subjects turning themselves into the Police Department.

The three subjects have been identified as: Stephen Donohue and Ben O’Brien, both of Front Royal, and Joseph Scheetz of Manassas. All three individuals have been charged with destruction of property and are expected in court on July 24th at 10am. The Police Department would like to thank everyone for their help in resolving this incident quickly. Anyone with information concerning this incident is asked to contact Det. DL Fogle at (540) 636-2208 or dfogle@frontroyalva.com.
