Scorned ex posts vandalism photo on MySpace

[January 07, 2009]  ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- A scorned 21-year-old told her ex-boyfriend that he couldn't prove she was the one who vandalized his apartment on three occasions -- but then, police said, she posted a picture of the damage on MySpace. The woman was charged with two felonies for the vandalism.

According to a criminal complaint filed in Ramsey County last week, she doused the inside of his house with paint -- splashing it on the walls, toilet, washing machine, computer and other furniture. She also allegedly filled the house with trash, impaled a teddy bear on a pole with a knife through its head, and caused other damage.

The woman was still on the lam Tuesday.

The complaint doesn't say why she might have wanted revenge, but it says she found out the man had been seeing another woman when he broke up with her.
