Fountain Fort Carson High School Vandalism
Fountain Police is reviewing security camera footage to determine the source of vandalism at Fountain Fort Carson High School. The n-word, f-bomb and a swastika were discovered on the southwest side of the high school building on Wednesday morning. A window was also shattered. Virtually all the damage has been cleaned up.
Questions remain about who did this and why? I asked District Eight Spokesperson John Fogarty if he believed this was racially motivated. Fogarty said, “No we don’t, it’s appearing it’s someone who wasn’t allowed back into this system this year. Someone who’s angry.”
Fogarty also talked to me about the very close knit community in Fountain and at the school, “Kids take pride in this campus. If anything, it angers kids when something is defaced.”
Fountain Police are also investigating the recent vandalism at the Fountain Cemetery. So far, there is no official link to the school and cemetery vandalism.
