POLICE are investigating a report of larceny and vandalism at the Malick Secondary School after a teacher discovered his classroom ransacked, the number "7" sprayed across the walls, and equipment stolen over the Christmas break.

According to reports, a visual arts teacher arrived at the school around 8.10 am on January 5 to find the padlock to his classroom broken and the door handle tampered with. On entering the room, he found the walls had been defaced with graffiti, specifically the number "7" painted in several areas.

The teacher told officers of the Morvant Police Station he had secured the room on December 12 before handing the keys over to the school’s general office for the vacation period.
