MOSCOW, Idaho (AP) _ Authorities say two teens have been charged
in connection to the shooting of several vehicles over a three-hour
period on State Highway 8 in northern Idaho.

The Lewiston Tribune reports the 14-year-olds appeared at a
closed hearing in juvenile court on Monday. Each of the teens has
been charged with two counts of unlawful discharge of a firearm at
a vehicle.

Latah County sheriff's officers arrested the Deary High School
students after receiving at least 20 reports of vehicles being hit
by shots fired Friday on the rural roadway.

The sheriff's office said no one was hurt and a majority of the
vehicles hit were tractor-trailer rigs.

The teens have since been released into the custody of their
parents.
