Teens Used Garage Opener To Enter Home, Vandalize Home With Eggs, Spray Paint: JPD

JOLIET, IL — The Joliet Police Department announced that two teenage women were arrested last week in connection with a disturbance inside a house. Chicago 19-year-old Laritza Villa was arrested and released on a notice to appear in court on charges of criminal defacement to property, and 18-year-old Carly Leon of Joliet was arrested and released on an identical charge.

According to Joliet police spokesman Dwayne English, at 3:11 p.m. July 1, officers responded to a residence in the 1700 block of Mountain Ridge Pass for a disturbance. Villa and Leon entered the home without permission using a previously provided garage opener, police said.

English said both women were reported to have been in past relationships with a resident of the home, and both had arrived to confront him.

Villa and Leon are accused of spray-painting walls, doors, and a mirror in the basement of the home as well as throwing and breaking eggs in the home. Officers found Villa and Leon outside the home and both had spray paint on their arms and egg yolks in their hair, English said.

Both were placed into custody without incident, the arrest report reflected.
