School Attack | Sabotage Incidents
Benton City Schools $100,000 in Computers Cables Vandalism Monday October 28, 2013 In Kiona Benton City schools in Washington, vandals tripped alarms at 4 p.m. but maintenance people went to the wrong building. Monday they found that vandals broke into the server closet and smashed the servers with sledgehammers in the district’s former administrative building, stabbed flat screen monitors, cut and pulled wires, leaving some schools without telephones, internet, computers or security. The damage was estimated at $100,000 as administrators scrambled to make repairs.
This resembles the cable theft attack that caused an explosion in UC Berkeley and attacks on communications towers, substations, power grid and optic fiber hubs, and would be consistent with a small scale sabotage attack.

omeone broke into the school on Highway 97 between about 4:30 Friday afternoon and 5:30 p.m. Saturday when the crime was discovered by a teacher. Surveillance video shows two people running down a hallway at 9:17 p.m.
Thousands of dollars worth of electronics were stolen from throughout the school, including Apple computers, iPads, Wii gaming systems, cameras used by the school’s student-operated closed circuit TV station, along with other items [extensive building damage]
comment: There is no way those two kids took that many items and left on bicycles. They may have done the leg work, but someone older with knowledge of how to enter, exit and transport had to be there.
weeks after a fire tore through Bella Bella's only grocery store and library, the remote West Coast community's only school has been badly vandalized in a senseless attack.
