Sports facilities at Washington-Liberty High School were vandalized ahead of a big football game over the weekend.
The vandalism happened overnight Friday into Saturday, before W-L was set to face cross-county rival Yorktown. A tipster tells ARLnow that the school’s track was damaged.
“At approximately 8:22 a.m. on September 21, police were dispatched to the 1300 block of N. Stafford Street for the late report of vandalism,” Arlington County police spokeswoman Alli Shorb tells ARLnow. “The preliminary investigation determined between approximately 3:00 p.m. on September 20 and 8:00 a.m. on September 21, the suspect(s) made entry onto the school’s field, spray painted surfaces and caused property damage before fleeing the scene.”
“There is no suspect description(s),” Shorb added. “The investigation is ongoing.”
Washington-Liberty soundly defeated Yorktown by a score of 46-16, the GazetteLeader reported. Both teams were undefeated heading into the Saturday contest.
