Police: January 2008 Archives

BY DAVE PARRO

Kaneland school officials have identified at least six seniors as the vandals who deflated dozens of bus tires last week and unplugged diesel engines in subzero weather.

While there will definitely be discipline coming from the school, including making the students pay back $4,000 in damages, no criminal charges have been filed. Meanwhile, in Naperville, police are asking for information on vandalism that caused $30,000 in damages to school bus tires.

What punishment best fits the crime for what essentially amounts to a student prank?
