The parent or parents of any unemancipated minor child who violates § 240-18 may also be held liable for the cost of replacing or repairing such damaged or destroyed property or restoring damage to victims in accordance with the Wisconsin Statutes.

(1) 
Whoever is concerned in the commission of an act prohibited by the ordinances listed in Subsection C above, is a principle and may be charged with and convicted of the commission of said act although he or she did not directly commit it and although the person who directly committed it has not been convicted of some other act prohibited by these ordinances.
