ASHEVILLE — Police were scouring downtown Asheville looking for a horde of people suspected of breaking out multiple car and storefront windows.
About 10:45 p.m. Saturday, a group of between 20-30 people wearing dark clothing, some wearing masks and carrying backpacks, threw items, including newspaper boxes, through windows of several businesses along O'Henry Avenue. A front window of the Asheville Citizen-Times was shattered, as were multiple storefronts at the Grove Arcade. An ATM was smashed at the RBC on O'Henry.
Multiple cars parked on Battery Park had their windows smashed.
