A teenage boy is being charged as an adult in connection to a break-in at a local middle school.

Seventeen-year-old Dancheno Ilay is charged with burglary.

It happened last week Tuesday at Benavente Middle School.

A school employee reported the main office had been ransacked and glass doors were damaged.

Multiple items including electronics were reported missing.

Ilay allegedly admitted to police that he stole some of the items but couldn’t remember everything because he had been drinking alcohol.

He is being held in the Department of Youth Affairs.
