Cameron Currier, 31, of Kingston, was arraigned Tuesday in Plymouth District Court, facing 20 charges including malicious damage to a motor vehicle. Police say Currier, who works as a line striper for an Avon firm, placed rocks weighing 15 to 50 pounds in the roadway of Route 27, near the intersection of Reed Street, a dozen or more times. The incidents caused damage to vehicles’ undercarriages and made for dangerous situations as drivers braked and swerved, to try to avoid the rocks. Hitting the rocks at night caused damage to wheels and rims, tires, undercarriage, and even caused airbags to deploy causing injury.
Currier, who lives near Route 27, was finally caught after a period of several months by a Kingston police officer who staked out the area in a camouflage suit and witnessed Currier in the act of putting a large boulder in the road. Currier was arrested and faced charges in court on Tuesday. A plea of “not guilty” was entered on his behalf.
He was released on $1500 bail and is scheduled to return to court in September. Kingston vandal caught red-handed
