Vandals recently caused thousands of dollars in damage to a local elementary school, though deputies are still searching for the culprits. 

A custodian at Erwin Elementary School, located at 1477 Locustwood Ave., first noticed the damage when he arrived for his shift a little after 9:30 a.m. June 28, according to a Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office incident report. 

The custodian immediately called deputies about the damage.
