Four teenagers are accused of vandalizing multiple properties in Smithtown early Sunday.
Suffolk County police say that the vandalism occurred on Lindron Avenue around 2 a.m.
They say the fences of at least two homes were damaged by four 18-year-old men.
Officers responded after receiving a 911 call from a resident that their fence was vandalized. They say they located a 2015 Ram pickup truck with the four men inside and identified them as the suspects.
The suspects have been identified as Andrew Pipitone and Diego Silvera, of Smithtown; and Christopher Scott and Brian Apulstille, of Hauppauge.
The teenagers were arrested and charged with criminal mischief.
They will have to appear in court at a later date.
Police say there could be more victims of vandalism.
Anyone who believes they may be a victim can call the Fourth Precinct Crime Section at 631-854-8426.
