Four teen boys were arrested Tuesday afternoon in connection to a break-in at a former southwest Salina family fun center.
Officers were sent to Jumpin' Joes Family Fun Center, 1634 Sunflower Road at 4:15 p.m. Tuesday for the report of four juveniles breaking into the closed facility, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. When they arrived, they found four teen boys: three 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old. Two of the boys allegedly were found inside and two outside, he said.
The gate on the east side of the property was open and a door on the east side of the building had a window broken out. Forrester said officers discovered that the 15-year-old and one of the 16-year-olds had gone to the facility and allegedly broken the window. They then left to pick up the other two 16-year-olds and had returned shortly before police arrived, he said.
The boys were released to their parents and referred to juvenile court on the following requested charges.
Two of the 16-year-old boys: trespassing and interference with law enforcement officers
The 15-year-old and the other 16-year-old: damage to property, three counts of trespassing each
