A Pine-Richland School District High School custodian is facing charges for allegedly selling alcohol and THC vapes to students on school grounds.
Keon Barrett, 23, of Saxonburg, is facing several charges including criminal use of a communication facility, delivery of a scheduled substance and two counts of corruption of minors.
A letter sent to families on Feb. 6 said that the evening custodian was arrested and placed on immediate administrative leave pending the outcome of the police investigation and further proceedings.
Police paperwork said that one student gave Barrett $20 for two cases of Twisted Tea and another student gave Barett $10 for a THC vape pen and Twisted Tea.
The district said that “student and staff safety and well-being is a priority for the district” and encouraged anyone with information to contact Northern Regional police at 724-625-3157 or use the Safe2Say Something application or website to make an anonymous report.
