CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) -- Chesterfield Police are looking for two suspects after power tools were reportedly stolen from the construction site at West Area Elementary School in Chesterfield County earlier this year.

A breaking and entering occurred at West Area Elementary School, located on Westerleigh Parkway in Chesterfield, on Jan. 20, a spokesperson with the Chesterfield County Police Department said.

Police said the school is under construction. Two unknown suspects reportedly took down the entrance gate leading to the school complex.
