Police are warning of ongoing credible threats on campus at Desert Hot Springs High School after a massive brawl was caught on video Wednesday.
The video shows punches being thrown, then students toppling over a wall and into the bushes as dozens of them try to stop the physical blows.
Police said no weapons have been found in their investigation so far, but the incident is sparking more concern among already worried parents.
"I am definitely super scared to send my kids to school some days," said parent Erika Garcia.
She has two daughters at DHSHS, and said she kept them home from school the day after another violent incident was caught on camera – showing a student police say was armed with a knife charging after another student.
Garcia said it's not just the pair of incidents that have occurred; her kids tell her fights are almost a daily occurrence.
"We're working with the school district to determine who was involved," said Desert Hot Springs Police Chief Jim Henson.
Henson said he's personally concerned about the ongoing violence and is beefing up law enforcement presence at the high school this week. He said he's also concerned about gang activity.
After News Channel 3 began asking questions, Palm Springs Unified School District sent a recorded phone message to parents that said students who were involved would face "appropriate" disciplinary action, and that there were no injuries.
One parent tells us they brought their student to the hospital with a concussion.

Yep.
Just because such feral beat downs occur throughout the country, parents are concerned when their sons and daughters,
all bloody and battered, return from school?
Wake up, parents. This is the Democrat/Communist agenda writ large.
Democrat owned and operated.
And tolerated.
Isn’t this pretty normal for a California High School? Just remember that Diversity is our strength ok...
FYI, this is Typical and Normal in almost every School in Los Angeles, quit whining and teach your kids to fight and shoot.

I have visited Indian casinos near Desert Hot Springs...One of them being Morongo Casino...
My theory is that many whites, who live in that area, do not have school-age kids...But, Hispanics, who work in service sector, have school-age kids...
I think that this case involves a bunch of Hispanic high school kids fighting...Other Hispanic kids...
Not many blacks live in that part of Riverside County...Near a big Indian casino...
Somehow, it's always Whitey that gets blamed.
Must be Whitey's fault, I guess.
BLM is the terrorist arm of the black NAACP.
Advancement is now defined as war on America, especially white America
I have sympathy for those caught in the middle
Why are ***children*** forced into environments that no **adult** would tolerate for a nanosecond?
This is child abuse!
Remember. Behind every government school worker stand armed police and force of law. ( Real bullets in those guns on the hip)
Re:I have sympathy for those caught in the middle
Yes, indeed! These environments are child abuse.
