The Franklin County school system is seeking information in connection with three school buses that were found vandalized at the Franklin County Annex Building last week.
Brian Norwood, the school system’s director of transportation and infrastructure, said that damage was done to signal and safety lights with electrical wiring being cut. He said the damage was more than $1,000, but a major source of aggravation is that one of the buses will not be repaired and won’t be ready to accommodate special needs children as classes resume.
“There’s some cost involved,” Norwood said, adding that although electrical wiring was cut, at least the breakage was clean, allowing mechanics to make repairs more easily, saving on the overall final bill.
Anyone with information in connection with the case is being asked to call Norwood at 931-967-7591 or the school system’s central office at 931-967-0626.
