A pair of teenagers reportedly broke in to the old Lafayette High School on Sunday.

While inside the pair sprayed the contents of fire extinguishers in much of the building; they were seen fleeing the property by police who answered a burglar alarm; the pair were quickly brought to heel.

17 year old Travis Scott Richardson from Rocky face, Georgia was charged with Burglary, felony Interference with Government Property and Obstruction; meanwhile, a juvenile was released to parents following the filing of a complaint with juvenile corrections.

The boys told police they had managed to get into the building through a broken window.

The old high school, formerly known as “Lafayette Academy” is located on Cherokee Street.
