State v. Sims

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam :

Destruction of personal property is not a crime. It becomes so only when the injury is wanton and wilful. G.S. 14-160. The Attorney General concedes error. Judgment on the second count in the warrant is arrested and the defendant is discharged on that count. The record fails to disclose any reason why the judgment on the assault charge should be disturbed.

No error.
