Teenage City Councilman Busted for Pilfering Romney Sign
As teen-stupid as it was partisan
A 19-year-old Pennsylvania councilman reportedly remains behind bars after allegedly stealing Mitt Romney campaign signs and damaging a farm field.
The Express-Times reports that Alburtis Councilman Kyle A. Bower was arraigned Wednesday on charges stemming from the Oct. 3 incidents and sent to Lehigh County Prison. A judge set Bower's bail at $5,000, but the teenager won't be released from custody even if he posts it due to a probation violation.
