SC High School Females Get In Hallway Fist Fight

Oct 17, 2012 | Child Accidents, Personal Injury, Uncategorized

Monday was interesting for Clover High School students, when they witnessed two teens get into a fist fight in the hallway. According to the witnesses, both girls dropped their book bags and charged each other. Thereafter, the girls started swinging.

Teachers abruptly separated the two 15-year-olds while the school resource officer charged them with “assault and battery“, as well as a “disturbing schools charge.”

One of the girls reported to the officer that when she got out of her out of school suspension, she ran into the other girl. That is when the arguing began and what eventually turned into a fist fight. additionally, the officer learned that the other girl and her sister and reportedly planned to ” jump” the girl Friday afternoon.

This however, has not been the first incident to erupt between the girls. In fact,this was the second violent report between the two ladies within the past two weeks.

Subsequently, the officer notified the department of Juvenile Justice of the incident, and the “jumper” was taken to the county’s juvenile holding facility.

Sometimes high school can be tough. It can be exceptionally difficult when you fear the students you attend school with. Although there are numerous supervisors, teachers, and other employees that walk the hallways, students still find away to escape the view of “adults” when they want to break the rules. Not only is fighting on school grounds a violation of school rules, but it also violates the state of South Carolina’s criminal laws.

Rock Hill Woman Rips Antenna of Cab and Beats Cab With It.

Oct 15, 2012 | Car Accidents, Uncategorized

A Rock Hill woman was arrested this weekend and  charged civilly with property damage, and criminally with public disorderly conduct for ripping an antenna off of a cab, and subsequently beating the car with it. This incident was reported early Saturday morning.

The report was filed by the 52-year-old cab driver, who picked up the Defendant off of W. White Street sometime shortly after midnight.

For whatever reason, the woman went ballistic, jumped out of the cab, ripped off the antenna, and began to beat the car with it. All the cab driver knows is that they were headed in the direction of the victim’s home when her temper got the best of her. Moreover, the “cab attack” damaged over $100 of the vehicle.

The 27-year-old is currently awaiting her bond of $6,000 for her weekend behavior. Fortunately for the cab driver, he suffered no personal injury.

In the case at hand, the cab driver was lucky to escape the cab attack without a scratch on him. However, this is rarely the case. Cab drivers are attacked more often than you may think. Many criminals “hi-jack” the cab and commit a crime, thinking they will be undetected in a car that is not their own. If the woman had hit the cab driver instead of the vehicle, the charges would be much more serious.
