Placentia man gets vandalism charges

A Placentia man has been charged after vandalizing several cars in the area.
CPL. Murphy said they arrested John Hartson after being identified by several locals in the Placentia area.
Murphy said after the arrest they asked the man who has a clean record why he would go on a path of destruction and Hartson said ” I just lost it when my habs lost. We plan parades every October when they start a winning streak and now this. I just can’t deal with this right now.”
Murphy went onto say that Hartson was very emotional and needed love and support from his family and alot of Kleenex to settle him down.
Court proceedings for John Hartson are set to begin in June.
