School lets out early after large fight at Modesto’s Davis High School--Deke Farrow

The school day ended early on Wednesday after a large fight broke out at Davis High School in Modesto.

Modesto police oversaw a controlled release of students at about 1 p.m.

Authorities responded to the report at lunchtime at the school at Rumble and Tully roads, said Modesto police spokeswoman Heather Graves.

Two students were being treated for minor injuries, police said. A couple of other students were detained by officers. No weapons were involved.

Modesto City Schools spokesperson Becky Fortuna said there were multiple students involved in a fight.

One injury assessed was at the school, but nobody was taken to a hospital and nobody had yet been taken into custody.

Because the campus was at lunch, it was pretty packed, Graves said.

At 12:30 p.m., police were questioning students. About a half-hour later, officers were overseeing a supervised release of students as the school day came to an early end.

We will have more information on this story as information develops.
