The suspects told investigators that they did it because "they wanted to get on the news."
Detectives arrested Aaron Dennis Green, 21, of Lithia, and two 17-year-old boys and charged all three with 80 plus counts of misdemeanor criminal mischief. The names of the teenagers weren't released because they were charged with misdemeanors.

Detectives received an anonymous tip that led to the identification of the suspects involved in the graffiti, the sheriff's office said.
When detectives arrived at the home of one of the juveniles arrested, all the suspects were there. They had seen the news coverage and were trying to get their stories straight, the sheriff's office said.
Three of the four were arrested without incident. The fourth person is an adult witness who was in the car and didn't participate in the spray-painting. He won't be charged, said sheriff's Lt. Michael Willette.
