Brawl breaks out at Los Angeles school

A South Los Angeles high school was temporarily closed after a 600-person brawl broke out between Latino and black students, officials said.

The Friday brawl at Locke High School resulted in four arrests and left several students with minor injuries, the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday.

The kids were crazy, running from place to place, jumping on other kids, said Reggie Smith, the school's band director.

The fight began between opposing groups of Latino and black students, but quickly grew into a mass brawl across the entire campus, the report said.

The school's security force called in some 60 officers to help calm the students, the Los Angeles Unified School District police said.

The city's police said they also sent at least a dozen patrol vehicles and 50 officers to the scene.

Locke, a school known to have frequent violence, is soon to be revamped into a group of charter schools headed by Green Dot Public Schools, the Times said.
