TUCSON, Ariz. — Tuesday’s lunch hour at Tucson High School became the setting for a chaotic fight involving dozens of students.Police and students tell KGUN 9 the fight began after a man arrived on campus. Students say the man was involved in the fight with several students.
“I’ve never seen anything like that,” a THS junior named Chris said. “You normally see one or two people, maybe two, you know? But like, 50-plus people? That is crazy.” With hundreds of students surrounding the scene during lunch hour, TUSD security tried to manage the mayhem.“Lots of yelling, a crowd, I saw lots of people running to the nurse because their eyes were hurting,” junior Erik Herr recalled. “Someone took my water bottle and poured water on their eyes; they got pepper-sprayed… Stuff like that shouldn’t happen at a school.”“Like, it was crazy,” Chris added.
