Multiple school district vehicles were burned, according to a statement from Superintendent Guadalupe Guerrero.
Portland Public Schools administrators were roused early Saturday, March 6, following overnight reports of vandalism and burned-out cars at the public school district s headquarters at 501 N. Dixon Street.
According to a statement from Superintendent Guadalupe Guerrero, several food delivery trucks and maintenance vans were destroyed. Fresh graffiti and smashed office windows were also reported. Police said two cargo vans and a one box truck went up in flames. While I am relieved that no one was hurt and there was no further damage to the building, this malicious act of arson and property destruction last night was criminal and it has no place in our community, the superintendent said in a statement. This was an attack on our city s public school system.
