Two teenagers have been arrested over a fire at an
Invercargill school earlier this month.
The January 3 fire at James Hargest High School destroyed two
new classrooms and caused an estimated $700,000 worth of
damage.
The pair, aged 18 and 19, were to appear in Invercargill
District Court today on arson and burglary charges.
They were also charged over an incident on October 7 when
picnic tables at the school were set alight.
