Three juveniles who were videotaped putting a bag of human feces in a microwave at a Salt Lake area convenience store were arrested on Thursday, police said
After milling around the store for a few moments, police said they went over to the microwave and
put a bag of human feces inside -- and then set the timer for ten minutes before leaving the store.
A few minutes later, the microwave blew up and sent the excrement and a putrid stench around the store. The appliance was destroyed and the entire store had to be fumigated for a long period of time -- resulting in lost profits, officials said. Overall, about $3,500 in damages occurred. (

Each of the three boys was charged with third-degree felonies stemming from the incident. They were not publicly identified due to their juvenile status.
