Two Thompson teenaged females were charged with breaking and entering over the weekend after they broke into Burntwood School.

The teens, whose identities are protected by the Youth Criminal Justice Act, were arrested by RCMP after responding to an insecure premise complaint at the school.

RCMP Staff Sergeant Kevin Lewis says that the intent behind the break and enter seemed to be mischievous in nature rather than malicious.

“At this point, we’re not really sure what the reason for the break in was. It appears it was most likely just a mischief situation involving fire extinguishers, but it appears it was motivated more or less with causing mischief within the school.”

Burntwood School could not be reached for a statement by the time of publication.
