High school hit by vandals

Whitefish High School was vandalized May 30 after an alleged senior prank went too far. Whitefish Police Chief Bill Dial says there are five juvenile suspects in the case.

The sign at the front entrance of the school was defaced and the sidewalk was painted with the word “Braves” using Flathead High School colors. Portrait photos in the foyer were also defaced with markers. A number of the portraits had mustaches drawn on them.

Dial says the department expects to make arrests within the next few days. Felony criminal mischief charges could be filed.
