Just got word that Wilmington resident Anthony Ruano was charged today with one count of vandalism for defacing an elementary school's wall in January.

Prosecutors at the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office say he got into a fight with his dad -- who wanted him to stop using drugs -- walked across the street from his home to Island Elementary School and scrawled an angry message for his father.

It was 7-feet long and 1-foot tall.

Let's just say his message rhymed with "Buck Few," not the sort of words you want on a school wall.

Ruano, 18, will have to go to court on March 11.

By the way, he got charged duringĀ "No Cussing Week."
