SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - Two teenagers were quickly arrested Wednesday only hours after a vandalism rampage at Lincoln High School in Sioux Falls. They were caught on surveillance video and employees at the school recognized the images.
Police identify the suspects as Addison John Park and Alex Everett Engel, both 18, both of Sioux Falls. Park was a basketball star at Lincoln, a former All-State center, who had been accepted at Morehead State in Minnesota on scholarship.
Both were charged with Burglary 3rd Degree and Intentional Damage to Property 1st Degree. Park was also charged with Petty Theft for stealing some backpacks.
The vandals damaged some equipment in the school and threw spices and oil around the cafeteria and in the hallways. School was delayed two hours Wednesday morning to clean up the mess and so police could look for clues.
