London police say a teenager was arrested and a second suspect fled the scene after a reported break-and-enter at London South Collegiate Institute on Friday.
Police say officers were called to the secondary school at 371 Tecumseh Ave. just before 5 p.m. Friday following reports of a “suspicious person.”
At the scene, police say officers saw a male suspect leave the school heading westbound on foot and dropping electronics as he ran. While that suspect was fleeing, police say a second male suspect was seen in the doorway of the school and was arrested.
A 17-year-old, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, has been charged with breaking and entering and theft and is due in court Aug. 17.
