Another fight at school

Another fight at school

YOUNGSTOWN

Another Sunday afternoon fight sent police scrambling to the area around Taft School this weekend.

Police received a call at 5:45 p.m. in reference to two juvenile females fighting near the school with a large crowd gathered around to watch. By the time police arrived, the fight was over and the crowd had broken up with various groups of juveniles walking away from the area.

Taft School was the site of a large fight last month that was recorded and uploaded to the Internet.

Police have made several arrests for felony rioting and trespassing stemming from that fight.
