An American flag has been torn to shreds at a Utah high school and replaced with an ISIS flag in what authorities suspect is some kind of sick prank.
Employees at Hurricane High School in southwest Utah discovered the vandalism early on Thursday morning. In addition to the flag, someone had spray painted ‘ISIS IS COMI’ on a wall.
Investigators with the Hurricane Police Department sent images of the flag to the FBI for analysis.
‘Based on information we received from the FBI we do not believe this act was perpetrated by someone linked to the Islamic State,’ the department said in a statement.
The graffiti, which looked like someone was interrupted while writing ‘ISIS is coming’, was swiftly removed by Washington County School District employees.
Workers also lowered the ISIS flag immediately and replaced it with a new American flag.
The shredded American flag was discarded at the scene, and is being processed for physical evidence to see if any clues lead to the perpetrator.
Police said they were following several leads but had not yet made an arrest in the case.
