Can I press charges if no damage was done?

Recently some childish kids threw bananas at my house (I'm not joking). It caused no damage but it was sticky. If I had proper evidence of this do you think anything would stick if it didn't cause any paint or property damage? (I understand the law varies from state to state I just wonder if in general this is vandalism without them causing tangible damage).

  • Since no damage was done the charges could be Criminal Mischief, Trespassing, or, in some states, Disorderly Conduct.

  • Not sure but I just wanted to say thats kinda funny. But I think you could get them on something I mean think of it this way, if a cop was driving by as they did that the cop would arrest them you know

  • Im sure you could "press charges" if you take enough time. It would be considered vandalism. But can you prove who it was?

  • it looks like you might have a case. it list egging as a kind so im sure throwing bananas would fall in this category. http://www.criminal-law-lawyer-source.com/terms/va...

  • Littering I'm sure.

    maybe disturbing the peace or vandalism.
