Schoolboy fight an

A schoolboy fight brought
police cars and an am-
bulance screaming to
Windsor Secondary School
in North . Vancouver

For a time confusion
reigned and rumors “of a
serious assault” spread in
what the North Van RCMP
finally concluded as merely
an “overblown fracas”.

One report emanating
from the “battle” scene was
that a 15-year-old boy
goaded a 17-year-old student
into a locker room fight by
throwing rocks at him and
that during a scuffle, the
juvenile hit his head on a
bench and was knocked
unconscious.

Another report reaching
police was that the boy had
only fainted.

An ambulance was called
which caused a lot of

confusion and the youngster
was taken to Lions Gate
Hospital.

The RCMP says the
“victim” of the fracas was

_ checked over by a doctor in

the emergency department
and it was found that there
was nothing wrong with him
and he was sent home.

A spokesman for the
RCMP says the detachment
received a number of phone
calls from parents com-
plaining about the discipline
at Windsor School, and that .
they “intended taking their
complaints to the North Van
school board.
