NEWHALL - Fighting between white, black and Latino students Friday at Hart High School resulted in the arrests of four teens, a sheriff?s sergeant said.
Students were arrested on suspicion of failure to disperse, said sheriff?s Sgt. Cortland Myers, adding that the fight appeared racially motivated. There were no injuries.
Witnesses said black and Latino classmates teamed up together and fought white students during lunch in retaliation for a fight between two teens at the school on Thursday when racial names were called.
William S. Hart Union High School District officials said it was not known what started the fighting or whether it was racially based.
Students on campus had other impressions.
?It was racial. All the Mexican and blacks gathered up and fought the whites,? said Agustin Chavez, 15. ?It was a rumble.?
