There's not enough detail here for me to accurately and adequately answer your questions. I suggest you contact and consult an attorney directly so he/she can learn all of the applicable circumstances and then properly advise you. But theoretically your boyfriend could be charged with theft, disorderly conduct, reckless damage of property etc. All at most would be class one misdemeanors, carrying a maximum of 6 months in jail, $2500 fine, 3 years probation etc.
