On 02/11/2012, at approximately 2:20 PM, the Juneau Police Department received a report that a teacher had caught four juvenile females vandalizing the Mendenhall River School. A JPD officer responded and contacted the teacher and four females. Two of the females were 11 years old, one was 10 years old, and one was 9 years old. The parents of all four girls were contacted and responded to the school.
