"BMW hit with penny; teen hit with $900 repair bill"
A Salt Lake City teen is accused of causing more than $900 damage to a BMW by hitting it with a penny. In charges filed Monday, investigators wrote that the teen said he threw the penny at another car to get the occupants attention on March 5.
Instead, the penny hit the roof of a BMW, causing $932.37 in damage. Charges do not indicate how the penny damaged the car. The 18-year-old was charged with misdemeanor criminal mischief.
