No TV, video games for girls who trashed home

NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - August 2, 2008

In a deal Cathy worked out with their parents, the girls must write "I will not vandalize other people's property" 1,000 times. They're also banned from watching TV and playing video games and must read a good book.

New Smyrna Beach police told the Daytona Beach News-Journal the preteens broke into Cathy's home two weeks ago and sprayed fire extinguishers, threw eggs and left water running in the kitchen.

The 87-year-old Cathy - who founded the fast food chain known for its cow billboards - said he didn't want to prosecute the girls and leave them with a criminal record.
