Warrants issued after Lufkin ISD ‘senior prank’ vandalism incident

LUFKIN, Texas (KETK) – Arrest warrants were issued after a “senior prank” went too far last Thursday.

Longview high seniors barred from graduation following ‘senior prank’

Lufkin ISD Police issued warrants for five high school seniors who they say vandalized the high school campus after hours. The students have also been barred from walking in graduation on Thursday night.

“Lufkin ISD will not tolerate this type of behavior that results in destruction of public property and disregard for staff, other students and the learning environment of our campuses,” Lufkin ISD said. “Parents need to have conversations with their children that these pranks can lead to school consequences, criminal charges and restitution for damages.”

A similar “senior prank” vandalism incident occurred this year in Longview, and students involved were not allowed to participate in graduation.
