(KSL News) Five teens who vandalized precious petroglyphs outside St. George have been sentenced.
A judge ordered the teens to perform community service, serve detention and pay 75-hundred dollars restitution.
The teens admitted they scratched their names and obscenities into the petroglyphs in May of last year -- petroglyphs believed to be some five-thousand years old.
Bureau of Land Management agents say the teens were partying at Land Hill in the Santa Clara River Reserve near Ivins when they vandalized the petroglyphs. Burned pallets and beer cans were found littered nearby.
