A 15-year-old London boy is facing three charges and police are searching for two other suspects after a lunchtime fight at Clarke Road secondary school Thursday in which staff and students were assaulted.

Officers arrived at the east-end high school just after 11 a.m. to reports of a fight at the back of the school. Police found “a number” of people with minor injuries.

Though the incident was called in to police as a weapons investigation, Const. Sandasha Bough said Friday none was involved.

“It turned out to be a physical altercation only,” she said.

A spokesperson for the Thames Valley District school board said a few staff members intervened at the school Thursday to ensure student safety.

“There were some minor injuries, but everyone will be fine,” board spokesperson Tania Testa said by email Friday.

“Students and staff have done an excellent job of pulling together after yesterday, which demonstrates the strong, Trojan character that fills Clarke Road.”

A 15-year-old boy, who can’t be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, has been charged with three counts of assault, police said Friday.

“It’s an ongoing investigation and we are still looking for two outstanding suspects,” Bough said.

Bough wouldn’t confirm the ages of the other two suspects are or whether they were from Clarke Road secondary school.

Despite police reporting only minor injuries, rumours swirled on social media and in the school community that a person had died in the altercation, which many were calling a stabbing. None of that is true, police say.

Anyone with information about the fight is asked to call London police at 519-661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
