Cops: Confiscation of eggs may have scrambled attack

In the wake of two "egging" attacks in town last week, a Nonopoge Road resident told police she confiscated four dozen eggs from a group of juveniles Tuesday around 11 p.m.

No more details were available, but teens were implicated in two other egg-throwing incidents a week earlier.

In one, a driver on South Benson Road was splattered -- and suffered minor cuts -- by eggs hurled by teens traveling in a Jeep headed in the other direction.

In the other egg attack, a 16-year-old was charged with criminal mischief for bombarding an attendant and a police officer with eggs at Fairfield Mobil on the Post Road. A teen accomplice in that case escaped, police said.
