An Everett man was arrested Dec. 12, after allegedly damaging a number of cars in front of Banks Lake Pub in Electric City.

Nicholas Swartz, 26, found himself in Grant County Jail on a first-degree malicious mischief charge for allegedly “keying” some nine cars in Electric City and fighting with witnesses who reported the incident to police.

The report stated that Swartz had circled nine cars and key scratched them on both sides.

Police stated that there could be as much as $5,000 damage to the vehicles.

Police confronted Swartz, who refused to take his hands out of his pockets when ordered to do so by an officer.

Officer Sean Cook said he had to take Swartz to the ground and then put him in hand restraints.

Swartz admitted keying the cars but didn’t offer a reason for doing so, according to Cook’s report.
