An Iowa City woman has been accused of throwing large objects at cars parked at Starbucks and the Mill.

Emma Schneider, 25, was charged Oct. 26 with second-degree criminal mischief.

According to an Iowa City police complaint, the reporting party saw Schneider and another female throwing large objects at several cars in the parking lots of the two businesses.

The objects were later identified as sidewalk pavers.

Schneider and the other female left in a vehicle, and the reporting party was able to provide vehicle information. Officers later made contact with Schneider about the damage, and she told officers the friend she was with threw the pavers, according to the police report.

Throughout the interview, her story continued to change, the complaint said.

In total, four vehicles’ windshields and hoods were damaged or destroyed, causing more than $1,000 in damage.

Second-degree criminal mischief is a Class-D felony.
