Suffolk police say the latest extreme sport craze to hit Deer Park's youth is really just vandalism.
Since October, Suffolk police have been after Deer Park teens accused of videotaping themselves "fence plowing." With five arrests of current or former Deer Park High School students made, police say the accused crash into fences head first and post videos of their conquests on Web sites, such as YouTube. Todd Kesselman installed surveillance cameras outside his home after repairing his fence on five occasions, at $200 each.
Due to their juvenile status, police are not releasing the identities of the suspects. They say some face felony criminal mischief charges, while 10 cases remain open in the area.
