Teens use clay pots to throw at cars in Stockton 02:22

STOCKTON — A group of minors riding through a Stockton neighborhood caused thousands of dollars worth of damage by throwing terracotta pots at cars.

Neighbors on Cameron Way say it’s usually quiet where they live and not much goes on.

“It’s really disheartening,” said John Lozano, who lives on the street.

Lozano’s Ring security camera captured a group of bicyclists riding down the street, some of them throwing those pots and leaving damage to neighbors’ cars.

The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office said at least seven teenagers were involved causing a total of $2,000 worth of damage.

“They’re just kind of shocked because we’re standing out here watching them do it and they didn’t care,” Lozano said. “And that’s the part where if they know you’re watching them do it and they don’t care, what are they going to do if there was no one around?”

One man, even taking running after the group.

One car’s taillight was shattered to pieces. Pieces of clay and glass were left on the asphalt below.
