RUTHERFORD COUNTY, Tenn. (WZTV) - Video submitted to the FOX 17 newsroom shows a handful of students fighting one another Wednesday morning at LaVergne Middle School. Some are warning the behavior is prompted by what students are calling “fight week.”

The viewer who submitted the video asked to remain anonymous, citing fears of suspension for the student who filmed the brawl.

“Everyone was screaming and yelling,” an eighth grader told FOX 17 News. “There’s been a lot of fights in the bathroom.”

The frightened student’s grandmother also shared her reaction to the disruption: “The video speaks for itself. She feels scared. She feels nervous.”

"Why would the student who filmed the fight be suspended?"

If you watch the video and see the color of the fighting students it's racist.

Same reason the FBI raided James O'Keefe's house. He was exposing the truth.

Teens fighting, flailing at each other. What pussified person would need a warning against seeing this?
