McADOO, SCHUYLKILL COUNTY- The vandals hit dozens of times in a three block area of McAdoo, near Hazleton.

We found smashed windows including every window in one car. Nearly 20 cars and trucks were hit in pretty much the same way. People are upset and angry because many of them could not go to work Tuesday because they had no way of getting there.

A store front was smashed and a bank was vandalized. People in McAdoo are disgusted. Mary Baranko said, “It's unbelievable. I mean we moved her from Philadelphia. We came here 22 years ago. It’s a nice place to raise kids. That scares me. It absolutely scares me."

Police arrested 23-year-old Gary Bersavage of McAdoo in connection with the case.
