Deputies have arrested three Plant City teens accused of spray painting graffiti on travel trailers in the "Airstream Ranch" display on Interstate 4.

The "Airstream Ranch" display, owned by Bates RVs of Dover, features eight Airstream trailers leaning at identical acute angles.

On Sunday, the teens tagged the trailers with graffiti markings of the "Dirty South Mafia" gang, Hillsborough County sheriff's spokeswoman Vida Morgan said.

The teens are also accused of spray painting a deputy's cruiser in eastern Hillsborough County with "D $ M."

Deputies arrested John Phillip Souza, 17, of 4812 Cooper Road; Ryan Christopher Campbell, 18, of 2727 Horseshoe Drive; and Joshua Thomas Jordan, 19, of 4510 Keene Road. They face burglary and criminal mischief charges.

Morgan said the teens admitted to being members of the Dirty South Mafia gang.
