VICTORVILLE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say two people have been arrested following a parents’ brawl that interrupted a Southern California kindergarten graduation ceremony.
School officials placed Puesta del Sol Elementary in the desert town of Victorville on lockdown Wednesday morning after a fight broke out among a group of parents.
San Bernardino County sheriff’s spokeswoman Karen Hunt says witnesses told deputies several mothers were involved in an argument and it got physical in a field near the ceremony. Several men then jumped into the fray, and the incident turned into a brawl.
A deputy following up on leads later arrested two people — Marina Vargas and Queiona Burt — on suspicion of being a disruptive presence at a school. Witnesses said they were the main instigators.
