ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.—Authorities say a thief broke into an Albuquerque elementary school and stole more than a dozen boxes of Student Council chocolate.
KOAT-TV in Albuquerque reports the bandit broke into Ernie Pyle Middle School last week and also ran out with $120 in Student Council cash, a laptop, a wheel barrow and a garbage can.
Officials say the cash and chocolate belonged to the Student Council, which was fundraising for various school projects.
Parent Cassandra Lucero says the break-in was “heartbreaking” for students.
The district representative said officials have looked at surveillance video, and it appears the culprit is a young teenager.
No arrests have been made.
