3 Minors Damage 61 Leather Seats On 20 Buses In Kunming
Innocence should not be an excuse to violate law. For three children in Kunming, this was the lesson when they were finally found to be on a public property damaging spree.
Their mischief was destroying leather seats on buses in the southwestern city. But before they were caught after a one-month hunt, they damaged 61 such seats of 20 buses which were put into service only during the Spring Festival this year.
Early May, several drivers of No. 8 buses found the leather seats in their bus bladed. Initially they thought it to be accidental.
“We thought it was slashed by passengers' belongings, who meant no harm,” said a driver.
Soon it covered all the No.8 buses and all damaged seats were deliberately selected in the blind zone. It is then that the drivers started to keep a watch on it with help of surveillance camera.
One day a driver found on the bladed leather seat traces of ball-point. Inferences were drawn that students from a school were to be blamed for.
Finally, on May 16th, the video captured a boy sitting beside the back door. He looked around, bladed the leather seat beside him and went off the bus.
The next day another boy was found repeating the same.
On May 27, the boys were seen by passengers on the bus blading four leather seats. The driver stopped the bus at Dapujicun and called the police.
Two children studying in Grade 4 of a Kunming primary school said that an elder person taught them to do so. However, they were contesting each other's version of story.
To restore a single damaged seat costs up to 700 yuan, implying the entire damage they caused to be 42,700 yuan in all. Given they were minors and hence immune from law suits or jail, the case ended up with their parents paying 13,800 yuan fine.
