Cellphone video captured two officers being assaulted during a violent brawl among students at a San Bernardino County high school campus.
The April 24 incident involved students from Entrepreneur High School in Highland and took place around 4:30 p.m.
In footage captured by a witness, at least three students are seen physically fighting in a parking lot when two officers with the San Bernardino City Unified School District arrived and attempted to break up the fight.
The female students were seen hitting and yelling at each other and generally ignoring officers’ attempts to pull them apart.
During the violent confrontation, several adults appear to show up and also join the fight. The teen girls were seen pushing the officers and refusing to cooperate. At one point, a teen appeared to pull the female officer’s hair before the male officer tackles a second teen girl to the ground.
School district officials confirmed to KTLA that two officers were physically assaulted during the altercation.
The teens involved were all eventually subdued, handcuffed and taken into custody as backup officers arrived at the parking lot.
It’s unclear what led up to the violent altercation. School officials said the incident remains under investigation.
Footage of the incident can be seen in the video player above.
