Police: Teen admits abandoning stolen SUV with dog inside, leaving pet to die

A teenager has pleaded guilty in juvenile court to stealing an SUV with a dog inside one afternoon this summer, then abandoning the vehicle and leaving the pet behind to die.

A marauding mob poured out of Mount Diablo foothills Saturday night, seeking for meals and drink, and ripping up at the very least a single manicured front lawn in San Ramon.

The mob was a team of wild boars — occasionally identified as feral pigs — and they ended up browsing for sustenance, almost certainly grubs in the lush suburban lawns.

The aftermath of their following-darkish frenzy was captured in a online video posted on Twitter by resident Ted Hunting. It confirmed a entrance garden with scraps of sod ripped up and strewn around the rest of the garden.

“The wild boars are back again in San Ramon,” Looking exclaimed, referring to a 2017 tv report on the uninvited and unwelcome thieves ripping up lawns.
