Yeah the cop called me last night and they caught the kid and his GF that did it at his parents house about 11:30. It turn out that they are juniors 16 yrs old and they were looking for a friends denali to play a prank on them it wasnt permanant paint as it turns out it was a temp paint or someting like that. To make a long story short I was able to take the paint off no trouble and the kids where in deep sh*t with the parents so me and wife decided to not press charges because they said they were sorry.
