SA: Man gives himself up over school fire

A man is expected to face court today after being charged with arson over a fire which
burnt part of the Loxton High School, in South Australia's Riverland.

The 24-year-old Riverland man is also charged with larceny of a motor vehicle.

The charges relate to a fire at the school on Sunday morning, which caused $250,000
damage to the administration building.

Police say the man gave himself up last night.

He's expected to appear in the Berri Magistrates Court.
