The incident began as a prank by three Hillsdale High School students, who vandalized the home of Craig Steven Miceli. In retaliation for their actions, which included egging and oiling his porch, Miceli fired a gun at their vehicle, leading to his arrest and multiple felony charges. Prosecutors emphasize that while Miceli's feelings of anger were understandable, using a firearm was an excessive response. He now faces serious legal repercussions, including a potential 15-year prison sentence if convicted, despite having no prior criminal record.
San Mateo County District Attorney Stephen Wagstaffe indicated that while the father’s anger over the pranks was understandable, firing a weapon at the teens was not justifiable.
Miceli faces multiple felony charges including assault with a firearm, firing at an inhabited vehicle, and illegal possession of an assault rifle, with a potential sentence of 15 years.
