Two members of a construction crew currently working on the stadium said several areas of construction were damaged and painted.

Glass was also painted in Section 30 of the stadium.

Two boys, on campus for a sports camp, said their room was broken into and their belongings stolen. They said they were not able to secure their door because the locking mechanism did not work.

A 15-year-old male from Macomb County said his iPhone charger, a pair of white and orange Nike socks and a set of Beats by Dr. Dre headphones were all taken.

A 16-year-old male, also from Macomb County, said his iPhone charger and $2 from his wallet were taken.

There are no known suspects.
