Adult Son Accused of Damaging Mother's Home in Urbandale

The Urbandale arrests below are preliminary criminal charges. They do not represent convictions or court resolutions.

John J. Hohulin, 29, of Urbandale, was asked to leave his mother's home on May 23.

Police say the problems came when he came back.

Police were called to 6123 Hickory Lane on May 23 in response to a family dispute. The family had told Hohulin he had to leave the home, said Lt. Rob Johansen, and police made sure that he did.

Later that day, however, Hohulin returned and is accused of throwing rocks through several windows in the house, breaking a storm door and front entry door, and breaking the window and door panel of a truck parked in the driveway.

Police charged him with second-degree criminal mischief and first-degree harassment. They stopped him as he was driving away from the home and also charged him with driving with suspended or revoked license, said Johansen.
