Photos show extensive damage after 3 kids allegedly vandalize Oklahoma school, cops say

A trio of Oklahoma children ages 6, 8 and 12 left a path of destruction inside a local school after breaking into it, Altus, Oklahoma police say.

Pictures provided by the department show the aftermath of what surveillance video captured: kids dumping paint on the floors, splashing walls and desks, damaging computers, and shooting off fire extinguishers from one room to the next -- all after breaking through a glass door to first gain entry, according to police.

The children caused an estimated $50,000 in damages to the Altus Intermediate School, according to a Monday statement on Altus PD’s Facebook page.

Many weighed in on the post.

“6 and 8.. Wow!! One just started walking for Gods sake,” Stephanie Smith commented.

“Little hoodlums! They should be required to help scrub the floors with toothbrushes all summer!” Dana Milburn Moore wrote, echoing a sentiment many shared.

According to posts from Altus Intermediate, staff members at the school are already cleaning up the mess left behind with help from community members.

Police brought the three alleged vandals into custody Sunday afternoon and have since released them to their parents, police said.
