Pranks

A group of seniors at Springville High School recently got together with the Springville PD. The seniors took (washable) blue paint and painted over all of the parking spaces in the school parking lot. The officers were to then write fake parking tickets for all the cars. Good stuff! It was a great senior prank, as is tradition with some schools. When I was a senior, we arranged "outdoor classrooms" for the school.

Those are examples of pranks.

Burning down a church (or ten) is not a prank. Poisoning your teacher is not a prank. And, to the Bessemer PD, trying to poison your teacher is not a prank. It is also not assault. It is attempted murder.
