VALDOSTA, Fla. (WTXL) -- More arrests are expected after roughly 30 students and others broke into Valdosta High School.

As of now, 17 students and teens are facing felony charges for vandalizing the high school.

Chief Of Police Brian Childress says the vandals kicked in vending machines, spilled oil on the floors, spray painted walls, among other things.

Damages to the school are more than four-thousand dollars.

"What we found was disturbing. Just to be clear, that was the week of senior prank week I think is what they call it. This was not a prank. This was a crime and I'm not gonna put up with it", said Childress.
