Three young adults have been arrested following a vandalism spree in Logan County.

Deputies began investigating two weeks ago, after vulgarities were spray-painted on the Henlawson Church of Christ, causing more than $3,400 dollars’ worth of damage.

During their investigation, deputies discovered another church had been targeted, as well as a bowling alley and several Little League baseball fields. They were also able to view video footage of the incidents and identified a vehicle suspected to be involved.

Finally, an anonymous tip led deputies to Stephanie Rae Nida, 21, of Logan.

When they went to question her, deputies found the suspect vehicle outside her home, with red paint on the door handle. Police say Nida confessed to the vandalism, and two more suspects were also identified — Katelyn Woods, 19, and Griffen Williams, 22, both of Henlawson. Deputies say Woods and Williams also confessed.

All three have been arrested on charges of conspiracy and felony destruction of property. They are being held in the Southwestern Regional Jail at Holden on $10,000 cash bonds.
