Major vandalism at Falun high school - classes cancelled

A high school in Falun was subjected to extensive vandalism over the weekend, including broken furniture and smashed windows. Classes were canceled on Monday, Falu-Kuriren reports.

According to the newspaper, the alarm went off at the school on Saturday evening and security guards and police responded.

The school's principal told the newspaper there was extensive damage, with furniture broken and overturned, books scattered, and china and glassware broken.

I was sad, very sad. Why do you do this? the principal told Falu-Kuriren.

Because the school needs to be cleaned and sanitized, officials decided to cancel Monday's classes for approximately 750 students.

Police are investigating suspected vandalism and trespassing, but it is not clear how the suspects managed to gain entry.
