Vandals hit Leamington elementary school

Late last week, someone spray-painted profanity and racial slurs on the walls outside of an elementary school in Leamington.

Now, the Ontario Provincial Police hope the public can help them find the vandal responsible.

The messages were spray painted on the rear wall at Margaret D. Bennie Public School and a portable.

Police believe the culprits did their work sometime between last Thursday and Friday, meaning students at the school may have seen it.

They're still investigating and ask anyone with information to call 1-888-310-1122, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, or submit a tip online at www.catchcrooks.com.
