Bravo said in her message that “it appears to be related to an ongoing dispute between the individuals involved.”
She said weapons were not used, but “it was still appalling, and behavior of this nature should never be tolerated at our school or any school in the district.”
Action News Jax received the police reports from the fight, saying that it was retaliation from a previous fight. JSO also claims the fight was gang related.
