VALDOSTA, Ga. (WCTV) - Valdosta Police say they have arrested multiple teenagers following a Wednesday afternoon fight at Valdosta High School.
Videos of the incident circulating on social media show what appears to be a large crowd of students gathering outside before a fight breaks out.
The videos have garnered thousands of views and show a handful of female teenagers wailing on an individual who appears to be a student, just before she falls to the ground. Moments later, an officer intervened.
“As the videos show, the altercation was promptly addressed by school administrators and the SROs, resulting in the arrest of some of the juveniles involved,” VPD said in a press release.
WCTV is currently working on obtaining copyright permission to share videos of the incident.
