Question

On the morning of July 15, 2006, fourteen school buses were vandalized. The buses, property of Walt Whitman Middle School, were parked in the "bus barn" on campus. The vandals spray-painted the buses with pictures of dogs. Dogs happen to be the mascot of rival school Edgar Allan Poe Academy. This has led some to believe that some students from EAPA may be the culprits in the incident. Says the mother of one Walt Whitman student, "Oh, yeah, the [Edgar Allan] Poe [Academy] kids are definitely responsible. Those kids don't have any discipline, and they're still stewing over the loss of last week's football game." Police, however, say that they currently have no suspects.
