WEBER COUNTY, Utah – Two teen siblings are in custody after they allegedly vandalized a church in Farr West with graffiti that included “perverse and satanic-laced writings”, and officers said the pair also damaged a nearby bridge owned by the city.
According to the Weber County Sheriff’s Office, a 13-year-old male and 15-year-old female are charged with vandalizing a place of worship owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Police stated the “perverse and satanic-laced writings were discovered early Sunday morning [by] religious leaders.”
