The injured student was treated by the school nurse and by Boston EMS, and was then taken to the hospital as a precaution, before being released.
The four girls were all in middle school, and one of them allegedly used a pair of scissors to attack.
School staff immediately responded to break up the fight and Boston police were also called in. Police are investigating"the potential use of a dangerous sharp object," according to school officials. "Everybody's out there recording with their phones," said senior Michael Tavares."Nobody else is stepping in. I got to the nearest group and tell them to cut it out."
Tavares, who's on the wrestling team, says he felt it was his duty to step in and start breaking it up. "I got as close as I can," said Tavares."As protective as I can, try to pull the people off each other and try to take control of the situation.""Violence in our schools and anywhere in our community is completely unacceptable," Boston Superintendent Mary Skipper said in a statement.
