The Pasco Sheriff's Office is asking New Port Richey residents for help identifying three juveniles who broke into a home under construction and caused property damage last month, according to a public appeal from the agency. Deputies say the vandalism happened in the 10700 block of El Radabob Way and remains under investigation.

Investigators say the incident took place on June 4 at about 4:20 p.m. Three juvenile White males entered the residential structure, which was still being built, and damaged property inside before leaving the scene, the sheriff's office said.

No injuries were reported. The agency has not released an estimate of how much damage was done, and it has not said how the group got into the building site.

Homes under construction can be an easy target when work crews are gone for the day, and neighbors are often the first to notice unfamiliar activity around an unfinished lot. Anyone who lives near the site and saw something around that afternoon is encouraged to pass along what they know, even a small detail can help investigators.
