Members of the Perth County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were called to Listowel District Secondary School shortly before 10:30 p.m. on March 24, 2018 following reports of graffiti on the exterior of the building.
The damage has been estimated between $4000-4500, and included a variety of offensive markings. Extensive canvassing in the neighbourhood and the assistance of the public have led to the arrest of a young person.
The sixteen-year-old resides in the Municipality of North Perth and was arrested and charged with the following offence:
Mischief Under $5000.
He was later released on a Promise to Appear and is scheduled to appear in court at a later date.
These senseless criminal acts leave a financial impact on those who are left to repair or replace their damaged property. The Perth County OPP thanks the members of the public who contacted police with information.
