Massachusetts man charged with putting rocks on road to damage cars

Suspect arrested after undercover detective waited in woods to see whether rock-leaver would emerge on rural road

For months, danger lurked on a dark road in the quiet coastal town of Kingston, Massachusetts. Rocks, some as heavy as 50lbs, started appearing in the middle of a rural road flanked by thick woods.

These rocks would be placed sporadically, mostly during darkness", each discovery appearing to involve one wayward rock. Sometimes, motorists would simply drive over the rocks without incident while at many other times, vehicles' undercarriages were being ripped out, causing fluid spills, disabling vehicles and even causing airbag deployments".
