molest dictionary entry
Inflected forms: mo·lest·ed, mo·lest·ing, mo·lests
1. To disturb, interfere with, or annoy.

PG is a wintering over haven for Monarchs, 100s of thousands all cram into a few dozen trees in one park. Quite stunning, and the law deters drunk teenagers from chuckking stuff at the trees which is why the law had to be written in the first place.
