Police say they’ve fingered a Maine man for “cowardly” smashing the windows of the Waterville home where rosy-cheeked tot Ayla Reynolds was last seen nearly two months ago, though what prompted the vandalism remains unclear.
Jeremy Hanson, 19, of Clinton, Maine, will be summonsed to court on charges of criminal mischief and violating the conditions of his release from previous charges, according to Waterville police. Authorities didn’t specify Hanson’s motive in smashing two of the windows in the modest Violette Avenue home on Feb. 3, but said he admitted to being the vigilante vandal in an interview last night at the police station.
It was unclear what connection, if any, Hanson has to Reynolds’ father, Justin DiPietro, or anyone else in his family, police said.
