Florin High Principal Body Slammed In Student Fight, 3 Arrested

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) -- Three students were taken to juvenile hall after a wild fight where the school's principal was body-slammed.

The Sacramento Bee reports Tuesday that the incident took place Monday at Florin High School.

When the fight broke out, a school resource police officer, a school official and Principal Don Ross tried to break it up. In trying to restrain one student Ross was thrown to the floor. He got up and tried to prevent the students from continuing to fight. He was not seriously injured. The fight was recorded by a student and posted on YouTube.

Sacramento County Sheriff's Sgt. Tony Turnbull says that two 15 year olds and a 13 year old were arrested. Two were charged with suspicion of battery on school staff causing injury and the third was arrested for making threats toward other students and law enforcement.
