SALT LAKE CITY, June 9 (UPI) -- Police in Salt Lake City said a teenager accused of misdemeanor criminal mischief allegedly caused more than $900 damage to a car by throwing a single penny.

However, the teen missed his mark and the penny instead struck the roof of a BMW, resulting in $932.37 worth of damage to the car, police said.
