Vandals Move HS Football Game
(WSB Radio) Tonight's DeKalb High School football semifinal game between Griffin and Tucker has been moved because of vandalism.
The game was scheduled for Adams Stadium, but copper thieves broke into the facility, stole copper wiring and rendered the stadium unusable. So now, tonight's game has been moved to Hallford Stadium.
"It is under investigation," says school system spokesman Dale Davis, "not only by DeKalb County school police but by DeKalb County police."
DeKalb teams do not have their own stadiums. Adams has been Tucker's most common home venue. Tucker has not played a playoff game at Hallford since 1986.
"We fortunate that we've got five stadiums," Davis tells WSB. "It's just one game. This is the semifinal game. The winner of this will be at the (Georgia) Dome next week."
Police are asking the public to contact them if they spotted anything unusual in the area around Adams Stadium.
