Large Fight Erupts At Morton During Lunch

Wednesday afternoon security and Hammond Police responded to a large lunch brawl in the Morton High School cafeteria, according to the School City of Hammond.

Administrators said students got into a physical altercation, despite several attempts from Morton High School security and staff to de-escalate the situation. A video posted online of the disturbance showed tables getting overturned, chairs being thrown and one female jumping off a table while throwing a punch. No students or staff were seriously injured, SCH told RNS.

The Hammond Police Department responded and the campus was put on a “secure” status while an investigation was conducted. The ten students involved will be disciplined according to the SCH Student Code of Conduct, which defines consequences for students exhibiting negative behaviors.
