BEVERLY HILLS—Around 11:30 a.m. on June 30, officers with the Beverly Hills Police Department responded to reports of vandalism by three elderly women near Gregory Way and La Cienega. According to NBC 4 Los Angeles, the three women are 75, 65, and 60 years old.
Another officer spotted the women and reported them. After the responding officer arrived at the scene, they found the women posting political signs on traffic utility boxes owned by the city of Beverly Hills and using glue from a bucket to secure them.
The BHPD issued them a citation for vandalism defined by Title 5, Chapter 9 of the Beverly Hills Municipal Code and by Section 594 PC of the California Penal Code as occurring when someone either defaces property with material or graffiti or damages or destroys property.
The women were cited because removing the glue from the boxes would be difficult. They were released by police but had to pay a fine of less than $400.
