SC Arrest: While Kids Marched High School Janitor Cleaned Cash From Backpacks

Aisha Evans, a custodian at Richland Northeast High School, was arrested after being accused of stealing property and cash from student’s backpacks while they were participating in the gun control walkout Wednesday.

Evans, 32, who worked as a janitor at the school, entered a classroom while students were outside and riffled through several of their book bags, the Richland County Sheriff’s Department said. In all, Evans stole $180, the department said.

The Service Solutions employee was arrested soon afterward and charged with three counts of petty larceny.
