Overview
- A doorbell camera recorded two juveniles at a north Phoenix home and one of them kicking through the custom front doors on Sept. 12, police said.
- Investigators identified the 14-year-old and took him into custody; he was booked into juvenile detention and charged with criminal damage and unlawful use of transportation.
- The pair fled in a red Ford truck that was reported stolen from Scottsdale, and detectives say they later found evidence linking the arrested teen to a second stolen vehicle.
- The family says the custom entry was destroyed and will need full replacement, with repair costs estimated at about $10,000.
- Police have not publicly identified or charged the second juvenile seen in the footage, the probe remains active, and officers urged parents to warn teens about the legal and safety risks of copying online challenges.
