Details On June 25th, starting at 12:20 p.m., 7 Madison Police Officers were sent to Madison East High School for a fight. Four teens were arrested. They had teamed up against a 15 year old. One suspect indicated the victim had said something about his mother. He did not like the comment. In the course of the scuffle a Principal was pushed to the ground, and a security guard was jostled. At one point some of the teens rolled down a staircase and the victim’s arm was injured.

One thought on “East student injured; principal pushed”

  1. According to one of the 10 o’clock news reports, the situation was attributed to hot weather and wanting vacation to start. This was by assumption since the students involved were not reported as saying any such thing.
    I found the tone of the TV news report to be inappropriately lighthearted.
    Why is there so much denial in Madison?
