The president of the Williamsport Area High School Student Government Association that organized Friday night’s homecoming dance said she was “ashamed” at how events got “out of hand,” but she believed the situation “could have been handled better.”
In a phone call to the Sun-Gazette Sunday night, senior Julianne Kiess said she was upset with news coverage of a reported melee and how the version presented by city police put the high school “in a negative light.”
As hundreds of students were leaving the school at 2990 W. Fourth St. about 10:30 p.m., numerous fights broke out.
