According to Capt. Joel Dolan of the Salem Police Department, on Jan. 11, 2016, officers were called to Norwood Road. The same neighborhood was hit by vandals in August.

Dolan noted that the department’s officers performed “a lengthy and exhaustive investigation” after tips began flowing in following the posting of a $1,000 reward. One of the tips led to the suspects, he stated.

Dolan added that these charges are only for the incidents on Jan. 11. More arrests and charges are expected as the investigation continues.

Thornhill, Tiner, and Williams were all released on personal recognizance bail and will be arraigned on March 7.
