Adults break into Riverside high school seeking revenge, attack student, staffers

• A student who was involved in a fight on campus with another student called adult relatives to seek revenge.

• A group of adults barged onto the campus, circumvented campus security and became involved in a brawl.

A group of adults stormed a high school in Riverside this week and attacked a student to carry out revenge for a student relative who was involved in an earlier fight.

One student and two school staff members were attacked Tuesday at Martin Luther King High School, according to the Riverside Unified School District. The series of events unfolded when a fight broke out between two boys earlier in the day on the campus.

After that fight, one of the students contacted family members to help them attack the other student, Officer Ryan Railsback told the Press-Enterprise. Several adults arrived at the school and some of them barged through a school office and circumvented campus security. A campus supervisor followed the group and alerted the school administration, who then contacted police, according to the school district.

In video footage shared on social media, several people can be seen involved in a brawl at the school. Railsback said school staff members tried to intervene but they were attacked by the adults and a student.
