Deputies were sent to River Birch Road in Pawleys Island June 30 because of a group of juveniles who were throwing wet newspapers at a home.

The homeowner said the teens rang his doorbell and ran. They then threw the wet papers at his house.

When he yelled at them, they fled into the woods but the harassment did not stop.

The man said they then started shining green laser pointers into his windows.

This scared the man’s 8 year old daughter.

The teens could not be found when officers arrived.
