An Instagram post reported to police Thursday night drew officers to the construction site of the new Provo High School, where they found $10,000 worth of damage.
Three male freshmen allegedly went to the construction site just before 7 p.m., said Provo police Lt. Brian Taylor, where they ”made use” of some of the heavy equipment at the site, including a scissor lift.
The teens severed an empty gas line, Taylor said, with the lift. They also set off some smoke bombs, he said.
The teens publicized their conduct on the photo-based social media site, Taylor said.
