The video shows the three suspects walking in the street early Saturday morning. The video elicited angry reactions in the post’s comments section.
“When they catch them they should be required to go to each home and replace the flags and apologize to the home owners,” one person wrote. “Not have Mom and Dad buy the flag either, if they do the crime they can do the time working to repair or replace what they damage.”
