Three Juveniles Arrested For Breaking Into Middle School

MGN Online

Three Tallahassee juveniles are facing burglary and trespassing charges after breaking into Fairview Middle School. 

Two 15-year-olds and a 16-year-old broke into Fairview Middle School, caught on security camera Sunday night. Deputies arrested them one block from the building. One burglar was carrying an electronic stun gun and a screwdriver, but nothing was taken from the school. The Leon County Sheriff’s Office does not know why the juveniles broke in.
