McMillon said violence at Oakland schools is unacceptable and there has to be change.
She showed a KTVU crew a video posted on social media that she says showed part of the fight between her son and the other student. Both teens are students at the school. "We need PD . My son was about left to die on their campus somewhere where they should be safe," said McMillon. "We're talking about violence. We're talking about people potentially losing their lives. I'm still praying for my son now."
"I'm thankful he's alive. That's what it comes down to. It's real and it happened to me," McMillon said."My son is very responsible. He's not a troublemaker. He's going to defend himself though," said McMillon.
