In the U.S, A teenager Aaron D. Richardson, 19, broke into a high school in hopes of finding a phone to call his grandma, according to police report.

Richardson was charged Monday night after officials at Treasure Coast High School reported that someone had broken into a concession stand and busted a computer, WPTV reports.

School surveillance videos also showed a man climbing the fence and driving a school-owned golf cart around campus, according to WPBF.com.

School officials identified the intruder as Richardson, a former student at the school.

Police said Richardson told them he entered the school searching for a phone to call his grandmother. When that didn't work, he said he tried to contact her via Facebook on the concession stand computer. That failed, too, so he punched the computer in anger, according to WPTV.

Richardson has been charged with trespassing on school property, criminal mischief for damaging the fence, which was valued at approximately $1,254, petit theft for stealing $6 worth of snacks from the concession stand and burglary of the school.
