East Ridge Students Face Charges
KENTUCKY....
Ten East Ridge High School students are facing charges after an alleged school prank got out-of-hand. Christopher Brown, Greg Coleman, Amber Jones and Telisha Little, along with six juveniles, are charged with burglary and criminal mischief. Investigators say the students stole a key from a staff member to gain entrance late Tuesday night, and, while school officials thought they were going to vandalize the building, the students say they intended to use sidewalk chalk and hang up posters as a senior prank. The principal says he got word of the plan and went to the school. When students arrived at 12:30 A.M. wearing masks and carrying items, he called police who chased them down when they attempted to hide in the hills. The students are due in court on June 29th.
