Since January, there have been more than 20 cases of property damage and vandalism in the North Main Street area of Randolph. No one was injured in any of the incidents.

Police say additional charges are likely. Bornstein is being held on $1,000 bail and is expected to be arraigned Monday at Quincy District Court.
