Mischief
Class of criminal offense

Class of criminal offense
The more common use of mischief is an “action or conduct that annoys or vexes; esp., such as may cause trivial evil, annoyance, or trouble to others” - Webster’s International Dictionary (second edition). Mischief (or malicious mischief) is a class of criminal offenses that are defined differently in different legal jurisdictions. While the wrongful acts will often involve what is popularly described as vandalism, there can be a legal differentiation between vandalism and mischief. The etymology of the word comes from Old French meschief, which means "misfortune", from meschever, "to end badly".
