The Chandler Police Department is investigating an act of vandalism that was committed in the early morning hours of Oct. 22 at Conley Elementary School.

At about 1:30 a.m. on Oct. 22, three suspects, believed to include at least one young male and one young female, "unlawfully" entered the school campus, located at 500 S. Arrowhead Drive, just south of Chandler Unified's district administration offices, police stated in a news release.

Once inside, the suspects damaged several areas of the property, including the special education classroom, where about seven iPads were taken and later found smashed in the school’s parking lot, they stated.

The suspects also broke into two storage sheds on the playground and scattered sports equipment across the campus, including onto rooftops. No property was reported stolen, and the damage appears to have been done solely out of malicious intent, police wrote.

Detectives are actively reviewing evidence and surveillance footage to identify those involved. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Chandler Police Department at 480-782-4130.
