paints on their tennis shoes—
from the art room, down the
halls, to the office and over at
the Jr. High,” Riley observed.
Referring to hammer blows
to glass, computers, stoves,
sewing machines and walls,
Riley said, “He, or they,
must’ve swung that hammer
over 100 times,” Scissors were
also stabbed viciously into the
wall.
