Teens vandalize high school

Two 13-year-old teenagers in Coquitlam are facing potential criminal charges for damage done to a middle school in the city, according to Coquitlam RCMP. 

Police were called to Montgomery Middle School on the evening of Sept. 17, where they found considerable vandalism, included broken windows, damaged computer gear, a broken vending machine and missing fire extinguishers.

"The estimated damage to the school is over $10,000 and that doesn’t factor in the inconvenience to everyone who uses the school," a release from RCMP said.

Police are working with Crown Counsel to decide if criminal charges are suitable for the two teens.
