The school was surrounded and three youth were captured when they attempted to flee.

Officers said they found evidence that the youth may have been involved in a rash of break and enters, including the one at Pleasant Hill Community School.

Two boys, 13 and 15, are facing break and enter, and committing theft charges.

A 10-year-old boy was released to his parents as he is too young to face criminal charges.
