Students Arrested in High School Cafeteria Fight

A lunchtime brawl between two students at Tucker High School left a trail of blood in the cafeteria as both ninth-graders were taken away by police.

The melee occurred late Thursday morning, according to a THS parent who did not wish to be identified. "Two students got into a fist fight, there was bleeding, police were called and both were put in handcuffs, arrested and left in police cars," the parent told Patch.

"It was quite a bloody mess, according to a student who has the same lunch period," she said, adding that the cause of the fight is not known.

A similar incident at the school last September left a teacher with a broken leg. 

"Apparently the fighting is more frequent than we're aware of," she said. "They have the principal and security (present) and that is how they get police there."
