The News Journal • May 1, 2009

A student was wounded with a knife during a fight between two students at Newark High School this morning, the school’s principal says.

Principal Curtis Bedford said in an e-mail to parents and students that Newark police responded immediately when called to the school.

The students were arrested, he said, and also will be disciplined under the Christina School District’s Code of Conduct.

There was no mention of the extent of the student's injury or if medical treatment was required.

The prom scheduled for this evening will be held as scheduled, he said.
