Classroom fight sees JSS second-formers wounding each other with scissors and Afro-pik

A fight at the Jennings Secondary School has left two male students nursing
stab wounds, while the Police investigate another incident in which a stone
was used to injure another Jennings teen in the head.
 
Reports say the principal notified the Police that a fight had broken out at the
school and each boy – from Grays Farm and Golden Grove – had been stabbed,
with scissors and an afro-pik, respectively.
 
Further reports say the altercation involved a 14-year-old and a 16-year-old
student, both second-formers.
 
It is alleged that the younger of the two was pushed by his classmate; and
during the altercation, he retaliated by using a pair of scissors to stab the 16-
year-old in the chest.
 

The older boy then used an afro-pik to inflict wounds to the right hand and left
side of his classmate’s face.
However, the 16-year-old student, while allegedly admitting to the Police that
he had been involved in the altercation, failed to say who the aggressor had
been.
 
Both students were later transported to the hospital for treatment. 
 
Doctors said their injuries are not life-threatening; however, the older boy
was sent for an X-ray and kept for observation. 
 
This incident is alleged to have occurred at about 11:10 a.m. on April 15.
 
Meanwhile, in a separate wounding incident, a Jennings teen was struck in the
head by a man whom he knows only by his alias.
 
Reports are that the 16-year-old was going home after playing football and
was confronted by the perpetrator, known as “Tee-jay,” who began to push
him.
 
They began to fight and “Tee-jay” is alleged to have thrown a stone that
connected with the teenager’s head, and wounded him.
 
The boy had to be transported to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre by the
Emergency Medical Service (EMS).
 
An initial search for the alleged offender proved futile.
 
This incident reportedly occurred in Jennings at about 8:15 p.m. on April 15.
 
Officers from the Johnsons Point Police Station are investigating both matters,
which occurred in their district.
