John Marshall High School. In recent days, equipment and instruments were stolen from the band room. Per information posted about the incident, ” The suspects took the sound system that we received through a grant from PEF. About 99% of flutes were taken, a few trumpet, trombone, and saxophones were also stolen. These instruments’ cases are marked and the instruments themselves, engraved with a FL1, TP2, etc…Several guitar and bass amps were taken, some of them belonging to students.”
