Deputies cracking down after juvenile 'unruly behavior' at town center

The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office is adopting a new "zero tolerance" policy toward juveniles at the Anderson Towne Center after numerous reports of "unruly behavior." “They’re stealing liquor from Kroger’s, there was at least one opportunity where they took the lobsters out of the tank, took the rubber bands off the pinchers and then set them loose in the store. Like I said they’re throwing condiments on the walls. They’re going up and down the aisles throwing things, the milk trick where they pretend to slip and throw the milk in the air and then it bursts on the ground," said HCSO Sgt. Thomas Lange. District 5 of the HCSO, which patrols the Anderson area, posted on Facebook about the new approach Monday morning.
