Four area teenagers are headed to juvenile court after breaking a house window and two rear car windows this week, according to police.

Police Chief Brian Krueger said Austin police received a complaint of rocks being thrown at a house in the 2400 and 2500 blocks of 10th Avenue Southwest Wednesday night around 11:30 p.m.

Officers stopped a vehicle with four teenage boys between the ages of 15-17 and questioned them about the incident. Krueger said two of the boys admitted to the property damage, and the other two cooperated but said they did not participate in the rock throwing.
