DNA tests used to charge 3 in school bus vandalism case

CANTON, Ohio - DNA evidence found in vandalized school buses has led to the arrest of three teenage boys.

The boys, two age 15 and one 16, are accused of breaking about 140 windows in seven Jackson Local School District buses on New Year's Eve. The boys' parents consented to police using DNA samples from their children as part of the investigation.

Jackson Township Police Chief Harley Neftzer said two of the three are students in the Jackson school system and the third is a Canton student. All three were arrested Tuesday.

DNA was collected from beer cans left at the scene and a bloody strip of gauze.
