After the Spanish Fork police asked for the public's help in finding the vandals who ripped hymnals, smashed paintings, damaged appliances, and discharged fire extinguishers in the building, a Snaphchat video helped lead to two arrests. 

A leaked Snapchat video has led to the arrest of two suspects in connection with an incident at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints building in late August that left the church in shambles and resulted in approximately $10,000 in damage.

Spanish Fork police Lt. Brandon Anderson said Kevin Hayes, 23 and Thomas Anderson, 20, both Spanish Fork residents, were booked into the Utah County Jail for investigation of burglary and criminal mischief.
