According to the district attorney, an investigation in April revealed the juvenile had inserted sewing needles in food items at the Giant in Trexlertown. There were no known injuries sustained by customers.
The juvenile was charged with three counts of recklessly endangering another person and one count of criminal mischief.
The district attorney said the matter has now been disposed of by the juvenile court, and no further information can be released because doing so would violate the Juvenile Act.
