Teenager Arrested In Attack Of Another Student
EMERY GODWIN
A 14-year-old high school student was arrested last week for beating another stu- dent. The incident took place in the bathroom at Armwood High School last Thursday.
According to police, the fight started around 12:55 p.m. As the fight continued, other students watched, and one student filmed the fight and posted it on social media.
Police arrested Denicia Tanay Brisbon and charged her with battery and false imprisonment. She told police that she was upset be- cause the victim’s cousins were following her around campus.
Without provocation, Brisbon allegedly kicked, punched, and dragged the other girl around the bath-
room floor by her hair. School officials heard the victim screaming and broke
up the fight.
Brisbon has been sus-
pended from school, pending a change of placement. The person who recorded the fight is also facing discipli- nary action, police stated.
