Allegedly punching a trailer outside an Iowa City business caused an estimated $1,000 in damages, leading to the arrest of a local transient.

Iowa City Police say 19-year-old Kaden Leech had been in an altercation with other subjects outside Big Ten Rentals on Boyrum Street just before 5:00 Friday night when he punched an enclosed trailer in the parking lot, breaking a panel that requires repair.

Leech is charged with 3rd Degree Criminal Mischief. If convicted, he faces a maximum of two years in jail.
