Sgt. Clyde Boatwright joins Two Way Talk to discuss policing in schools
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Police in Maryland say seven students were arrested and two were taken to hospitals after a fight involving a knife broke out at a high school.
Anne Arundel County Police spokeswoman Lt. Jackie Davis says Annapolis High School was locked down after the fight, which stemmed from a neighborhood dispute.
She says the injuries, which included cut and puncture wounds, were not considered life-threatening.
During a transition between classes, Davis says school resource officers spotted the fight at the top of a stairwell and rushed to intervene.
She says a teacher alerted the officers that a student had a knife and he was quickly disarmed and taken into custody.
Davis says police made seven arrests and there may be more.
