Moniteau High School in Cherry Township, Butler County

A vandal targeted a Butler County high school — and the home front lawn of its principal, police said.

According to state police, someone in a side-by-side utility vehicle rammed a fence at Moniteau High School in Cherry Township around 2 a.m. on Tuesday.

A side-by-side is a small two-to-six person four-wheel drive off-road vehicle.

Using the vehicle, they then proceeded to do multiple “donuts” on the property, including the football field, state police said.

State police said it was later discovered that the front lawn at the principal’s home had also been damaged by a side-by-side.

Damage was estimated at more than $1,000.

No other information was released.
